Discgoddes I have no problems with pledging, I do beleive it could be a plus in alot of cases but I will not be hit thats all I was saying. The learning process and the leadership roles etc that you learn through pledging is great just minus a beat down. I really was not trying to post about just "hazing" so to speak, but you would be surprised how many young men and women feel that the beatdown is necessary for respect I just wanted everyone to know it is not. Some people that are called "paper" are those who have went throught the whole process and then in the end were dropped and some dropped line because of physical abuse. I just think it is awful of some who may not have respect them because the were considered "paper" I know for myself If I am faced with choice of being what one would consider "paper" or a beat down I would rather be known as paper without a doubt. Thats all I was trying to say.
