I am very sorry to all who have to go through a BM program. You are missing out on one of the greatest experiences of your life. Traditional is quite better. The time you spend with your pledge class through all the rough times pulls you together like nothing else. It is a bonding time that promotes brotherhood through good times and bad. Im am sorry I have also seen BM at work and it is an easy way to gain you letters. I think it is a cop out and it was implimented by nationals to save face with the anti greek atmosphere in the early 90s. I am from one of the most traditional Greek systems in the country where the system is involved with everything on campus. We have scholarship programs, fund raisers, and we are active in student Government, not to mention Alumni Associations and honor Societies. We are also a Division 1 school in the SEC so we are not talkin about some small country college and Traditional works if you do it right. And yes to you hard core they are traditional so they must haze individuals, we do haze quite a bit actually and we are also a 100 man house which is quite large here. Hazing if done constructivly instills resopect for not just older brothers, but the house and traditions of SigEp and I think it is a shame that nationals wants to take that out.
