Anytime someone thinks that the NPC, NPHC, and NIC have "gone too far" in their anti-hazing rules need only read some of the responses on this thread to understand WHY such restrictions are necessary today. Even in the 21st century, some teenagers will justify cruelty. Notice the relativistic "it wasn't as bad as....." justification.

Ladies and Gents, if this is the next generation coming into GLOs, the governing bodies will have a lot to deal with for years to come.

Adrienne, with all due respect, you are not yet a member of a GLO and you have not seen how far some of the hazing rules go. So don't say all the choices made have been right, because they haven't, and I've seen chapters suffer for it. I've seen chapters that are afraid to joke with their pledges or hang out with them for fear that something they will do will be misinterpreted. And as a result, sisterhood has gone down the tubes.

and anyhoo, I don't think we need to even bring up Greek life discussing this subject, until these hellions are off to college and their sorry butts get blackballed out of rush. (I'm addressing the girls who did this, not the whole school) I'm sure there are enough upstanding members in this generation to do so.

I do agree with the fact that a lot of the press is coming because this is an affluent school. **cough cough JonBenet cough cough**
