I cannot believe that people still think that hazing = bonding! FWIW, when I was an advisor, I was forever used as an example of someone who was hazed. How was I hazed? I had to wear a pledge ribbon on Bid Day, and Initiation Week. I had a pledge book that sisters had to sign. I had to get coffee for sisters at dinner. I had to participate in a scavenger hunt.

While that hardly sounds like a list of horrifying, insulting hazing rituals, they can easily turn into the disasters such as mentioned in this article. So, dear fellow greeks, please don't think that the "trivial" tasks I had to perform are simply fun. It only takes one bad apple to make a scavenger hunt of collecting signatures of campus heroes to turn into taking very real tragedies. There's a huge reason why hazing has been outlawed!
