Alfred's study sux

The phony "athletic hazing" study by Alfred was a joke.

Their definition of hazing was so broad, that it "proved" that every football player, soccer player, softball player, cheerleader, and every other fall season team member was hazed, cause their definition of hazing included "required to return to school early (before rest of student body) for practice."

If you accept that all of these people are hazed, it jacks up the stats substantially.

And similarly, Eileen's fratenity hazing "deaths" include a lot of non-pledges and non-members. At So. Carolina, three guys were not allowed into a party, so they came back with a gun and killed two or three people, who happened to be pledges. These are hazing deaths???? Eileen says "yes."
