I totally agree w/ all your saying SilverTurtle. The athletes at my school have study table too. Here, they are required for freshmen, but upperclassmen can come if they need help in something.
Like I said, the administration is taking hazing to a whole different level. I know it's very important to keep it from getting out of hand, but saying that study tables are hazing now? That's so odd. Aren't we in college to get an education? Why shouldn't that be enforced when pledging? It's an important principle in most, if not all, GLOs I know. One of the chapters in my org just started doing a progress report system to keep track of everyone's grades/GPA. Now our National Board wants us all to implement that. It's a great idea b/c it's so easy to start concentrating on greek stuff and lose sight of the reason you're in college in the first place!
