Of course, hazing is supposed to be prohibited on our campus, but everyone knows it happens anyway. I heard that one of the frats actually beats their new pledges. Lol, now that I'm this close, I've started worrying about what the girls might do to me. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I might can expect within the next six weeks?

HI PinkShip,
As everyone else has said at any time during the new member period (or after) if you feel like you're being hazed contact the headquarters of the particular chapter you are in. All NPC groups have an official statement regarding hazing and that is it is not allowed. Unfortunately you have some chapters that may have been around for 50 to 100 years that it is hard to break their tradition of hazing. The only way to truly stop the hazing is if their headquarters knows about it. Often times if it's a first offense the chapter may only be placed probation by their headquarters.
Good luck with recruitment and I hope you find your home with a sorority that puts all your fears to rest.
Carolyn
