questions

1. Have you ever experienced hazing?
yeh, some call it that.
2. If you can say, please describe your hazing experience?
Its mostly mental, but thats part of the physicality of it. Lot of stress, depression, guilt, hate.
3. What were your feelings during the hazing experience?
I hated what i went through, but it serves a purpose and in the end, it served its purpose
4. Do you think that you have ever gotten over the hazing experience? If yes, how so?
yeh, i jus knew as long as i didnt die, i'll be strait. there are things that i will never forget tho. i mean hell, times where i couldnt walk right or sit right
5. Did your experience cause you to become ill or physically injured?
How? Did you ever recover or suffer from permanent injuries?
ummm... tricky question... I was definitely physcially injured (i'll spare the details..lol lets jus say i had to wear multiple clothing)

ill... While still on line, i went to support a line brother playing football in a different city. I became seriously ill on the trip. bascially a regular common cold, but due to other parts of my body being hurt.. it amplified it. I was MISERABLE!

Yeh, i've recovered tho, i hav some scarring. but it comes with the territory of being "made".
6. Did you encounter any feelings of constant fear or anxiety anytime after being hazed? If yes, how did these feelings affect other aspects of your social life (friends, family, school life and activities)?
aftter bein hazed as in still on line or after the line? I jus kno wen i was on line, i was afraid of the dark. lol... only cuz we have set or have to go do something.

friends..i lost some...family...dey understand. jus trust that...activities. I hold office in other orgs on campus. needless to say, i wasnt much of a help
7. During your hazing period, were you frequently absent from school because of the hazing activities? How did this affect you’re your grades and academic life?
i actually wasnt. I had a job on campus which required me to be on campus at 8am and since i live off campus, it wud be stupid to go home and skip class

my grades did drop, naturally. I was sleep deprived and even tho i was in class, it doesnt mean i was attentive.

8. Did you ever have second thoughts about joining the group because of speculations and stories of hazing? If yes, what made you go through with joining the group?
i never had seconds thoughts. I knew this org "took pride in pledging the hardest". Once i was goin thru it tho, i jus remember thinking, GOT DAMM!!! i had no idea it was like THIS!!!!
I went through it becuz i wanted to join a brotherhood. I wanted brothers. u get closer to em by goin thru somethin. dis is wat i wanted, so thats wat i did
9. Do you think that the experience has made you stronger and closer to your colleagues?
colleagues? u mean my Line Brothers? and HELL YEH!!! u kno wat we went thru!?!?! Im cooler and stronger den we was before we got on line. but its some im not close to compared to others. but its expected to hav lil "cliques" within your line
10. Did you ever report hazing to your school administration? Why or why not?
HELL NO! I wish i cud say the same for some others. My reason was because i mainly wanted to be in the org becuz of the brotherhood. youre closer thru your line brothers if yall went thru somethin, if i reported it, den da line wuda been dropped and we would not have went through shit and that defeats my MAIN purpose of joining in the first place!!
11. Are you still a member of or affiliated with the group? If no, was the hazing incident a reason for leaving the group?
no, i am not. i mean, im affliated but not officially. and yeh, some of my so called line brothers didnt like the hazing and reported it (like i said before, this org takes pride in pledgin the HARDEST). Our line was dropped, but we had alredy been thru a lot. And yes, i hated it with all my heart, but i knew there was a reason behind it, thats why i did it.
12. What opinions did your family and friends outside the group express about your hazing experiences?
my brother and mother are both in greek orgs. both pledged. i also have cousins and friends that are the same. i knew somewhat wat i was getting into before i got into it. i jus wanted to..PLEDGE
13. Do you think that stories seen on television or in books truly depict the nature and effects of hazing, from your experiences? If no, how are they misleading?
never really seen stuff on tv, so idk. but i kno the media hypes it up to what its really not. they make it to seem demonic. if that was the case, hazing would have died out long ago. media has to make it controversial for their ratings. though they do spit da truth

in closing, i dont regret what i did. its very much in heart. i love the org, i wish others understood that. what i choose to do with my body is my choice. i chose to take the wood.
the reason i joined this website is because i jus want to see yall.ppl who went thru something and made it. im jealous really.

november 23, 2009 SHOULD have been my probate. but 6 days later, im still here, and still have no letters. some ppl can sit der and say forget that. but not me.

So to all who went thru something to join your greek org.. Congrats. and to those who didnt that are in a greek org too. i cant really say ish cept congrats too. cuz at the end of the day, you have somthing i want...letters.

but still...i dont regret it.

i'll keep SEARCHING, LOOKING TOWARDS THE _______. Also towards the_________.

In MY HEART, NEVER WILL IT PART. NEVER WILL IT FADE.
