Confused about pledging in the Divine Nine

I am a male student at a HBCU that has 7 of the Divine Nine. Each org is active on and off campus. Just watching the fun and excitement greeks have during the experience is what makes we wanna join but thats not the only reason why. Being the only one in my immediate family to attend college i also want to be able to say i done something. I would go undergrad to be able to enjoy the experience of pledging undergrad but my problem is that i am rolling into finishing my undergrad and some situations arose to where the frat org i am interested in is currently on suspension so really i have no choice unless i add one more semester to my undergrad. Its not the fact that i want to just be a greek, its 1. i want to be involved on campus some how 2. Why not go greek if you join an org on campus, not just for the entertainment but for experience 3. Admist of all the other situations that have been happening with BGLOs(hazing, fights, etc), they are involved wether it be on campus or in the community and being apart of something like that would, well should, make a person want to join that organization. But then the downfall is that hazing s**t doesn't fly too much with me like when i played sports in high school i mean we picked with the freshman, who doesn't, but i aint about to beat the hell out of them for no reason thats stupid. I feel the same way about pledging, if i were to be in that situation and some guy wants to hit me we can square off and box because i refuse to be beat by some other man other than GOD himself and violence isn't in his reputation. So really what i am saying that is the experience worth the pain of me having to pay all that money(i'm a business major don't ask) to wonder if my boxing skills are up to par? If that's the reason i'll try to go Pro-Am boxing. Does it sound like i want to be in it for the right reasons?

Any and all Greeks are welcome to respond because your suggestion are appreciated
