The best solution? Eliminate fraternities altogether. Just get rid of them. The university will survive. I promise.

So who's responsible? The university and police do all they can.

Well, I've seen enough. The only way to solve the problem of fraternity hazing is to get rid of fraternities.

So who's responsible?

. . That was my question after hearing about greek drinking issues. Well, - who is responsible- , and - who is liable - are two different things. "Adults" should be responsible for their own actions . . but greek organization will become liable for any broken law or what have you.

Listen, I feel for any young person who makes the incorrect decision to binge drink to the point that some kids do . . but to throw the baby out with the bathwater is totally incorrect.

I mean do you really think kids (and we are talking about baby adults 17-22) won't make poor decisions that may or could cause death without the fraternities. Or are you so nieve as to think fraternities force these people to do things that they would NEVER do without the powerful "brother" "hazing".

I am not saying that their are not some poor excuses for philenthropic fraternal organizations but wow "Eliminate Fraternities Altogether" . . . that is rediculous.

. . .Which I am sure the writer knows that is why he wrote the article and expected to get tons of p.o'd greeks to read and reply to him. Well, thanks to greek chat I got to vent and I didn't have to give that guy any attention for a crazy theory like that.
