I certainly do not want to show negativity towards greek letter organizations because I think they are all dynamic and I'm so happy they are in existence.

I just want to say that I think the pledging process can be an intense bonding and learning experience with out physical abuse. Some people just take it too far in my opinion. I'm thinking the pledging process can be physically demanding (building strength) and mentally challenging while promoting togetherness and transferring knowledge.

What I do not like is the fact that some people don't seem to have to go through much of anything while others are totally stressed while they battle the burning sands.

I have seen individuals call their mommies and other authorities for help because they were not strong enough to handle themselves or because they wanted a free ride. Just because their moms are fierce warriors, that doesn't mean their offsprings always are.

(And I am not talking about any greek letter organization in particular. Many things I have witnessed have nothing to do with Panhellenic Orgs. Hazing goes on in various other arenas)
