Fred,

I think you should really sit down and think about what you are saying. To "abolish" Fraternities and Sororities is clearly a knee-jerk and simplified answer to greater and more complicated problem. If you propose to abolish Fraternities because of hazing, than you must also want to abolish the military, sports teams, large corporations, etc.

Yes, over the last century there has been hazing and as a result, injuries and deaths. But does this represent the carelesness of individuals and individual houses, or an entire organization?

There have been many more injuries and deaths as a result of drunk driving accidents. Do you propose to eliminate cars? Or, do you think education is the way to prevent such careless and reckless behavior?

Before you go and attack the Greek system, think about what you are saying. Being so rash only makes you sound foolish.
