You know... I may not make many friends for saying this, but I think it serves chapters that haze right if they get their charters pulled. Just don't do it people!!!
1. We all know it's illegal
2. We all know it's against our school policy
3. We all know it's against our national GLO policy (assuming we are nationals)
My personal thought is that even if someone in the depths of his or her heart believes that hazing is OK and fun and wonderful, they'd be pretty stupid to do it. I do feel really badly for the groups like DZ that were kicked off campus... but for groups like ZBT, Klan Alpine, and Sigma Chi Nu, it seems to me they've kicked themselves in the arse. Not to mention, they've ruined everyone else's party. For me, the lesson from this is not "screw the administration", it's "Stop hazing, stupid".
That said, I do have the utmost sympathy for groups that were not hazing on the Alfred campus. My cousin went to Alfred but is sort of the hippy artsy type and was not Greek. I hope their campus can work through all this issues and have strong, non-hazing GLOs return.
