It is hazing just look at IU's rush schedule and this year's revised one, the hours in a day are unacceptable. Please do not say the actives had the same schedule. They were in the warmth of their houses, not traveling through freezing temps with high anxiety levels.
For those who make it through, I guess it's acceptable. For the many young women (and there are MANY) who did not get a bid last night having to go to classes today and seeing the many bid shirts today is just another hit to their self-esteem. However, these are the strong women, most holding their heads up high, making alternative plans for next year in terms of housing and social life. They should be applauded.
