hazing incident
Wow...I just realized something...I am in a sorority and have always been or at least thought I have been against hazing until my mother made a point...in high school we hazed...
on my dance team the seniors "initiated" the freshman into the squad...for the week at camp before the school year started (summer time) the freshman became slaves and had to cater to their master (senior)...including waking up at 4am to get the breakfast in bed...rubbing their stinky feet after 16 hrs of practic...taking showers last which meant no warm water...running extra laps...performing embarrassing acts in front of groups beyond the hundreds (we were at camp with the band)...wearing crazy outfits in 100 degree weather during practice etc...and at the end of the week there was a sister event where we had a "dance" and bonded since they made it...I just NEVER realized how similiar...some of the freshman would get so sick from all the endured etc...I remember I personally had fun being a slave and made the best of it but I remember some girls crying and being forced to do stuff (and this is a public high school dance team)...I also remember being a senior and having my fun...i felt I had earned it and it made me a stronger person after going through it...I still dont believe in hazing in college frats/sororities...but that makes me a hypocrite....comments????
