Hi everyone.

I go to a large SEC school and I am looking to pledge at one of the "top tier" houses here.

I realize the process of pledging is often overdramatized based on things like Animal House, and I don't really mind cleaning or running errands. However, one thing I am worried about is alcohol during pledging. Its not that I don't drink, I just don't drink a lot, I don't like getting drunk/hangovers. What isn't clear is what happens in the darker parts of pledging, and of course I've heard the stories about being locked in an attic with an hour and a handle. Is this sort of thing still likely to occur? Because this is really something I wouldn't want to go through.
