Retro Recruitment.....with a different ending

[violetpretty]

I think the bottom line as far as hazing is concerned is whether something is required. If you MAKE your new members get signatures, then that seems kind of degrading to me. However, I see the reasoning behind the ZTA crown idea, and that it does encourage actives and NMs to meet and become closer. Why not make it a contest to see who can get the most signatures/interviews and explain what you should try to accomplish by meeting with all of these sisters rather than forcing them to do it? Anyone who has taken a psychology class can tell you that people (and other animals) respond better to rewards rather than punishment.
