I have spoken on a this before. As an interest no matter how much I want to be a part of my chosen org. I will not take a beat down. Period. I wish that the nphc orgs. would stop risking the possible suspensions of there chapters for such petty bs. I am quite sure most people would have no problem with mip as long as it does not get physical. I ask those who take part in this kind of behavior, just how does hitting someone help them to be a better soror or frat?! I know a girl who went through the whole process (beat down and all), but was denied membership at the end. All the girls she was online with consider her "paper". Is that fair? I feel bad for her because they give her no respect. The thing is though that looks bad on their org. When will all the greeks realize that you can not control how someone came in. If they are in then they are in. It does not matter if you do not consider them your soror or frat, still they are. How can someone say "well i just can not love her/him the same cause she is paper" please. You all should love each other regardless. Then you want to teach your interests and prospectives about bonding and respect yet some of you do not even respect each other. I have said it before but let me say it again: When a parent beats a child is that out of love? When a man beats a woman is that out of love? I think not! So when A sister (of an org) or a brother (of an org) beats their pledgees how the HELL is that out of love. Giving one wood or whatever kind of beating one may recieve while online does not teach them their history nor does it teach them how to bond with their line sisters or brothers. It does not make one love the org. more. What it does do is create resentment. Alot of which is pointed at those that did not recieve the same MIP as those that were hazed. Instead of resenting people that are "paper" (as you all call them) what you should be doing is resenting the ones that kicked your a**. If the MIP process for some orgs and chapters had not become so fierce, then there may not have ever been someone out there to call "paper".
