She needs to step off of her soapbox and keep it moving...

This is what I have a problem with. If she was so above these antics and found them deeply troublesome, why would she continue with the process? I think people change their minds about what they feel is right and wrong at different times in their lives. And it's okay to change your mind but it's not okay to publicly denounce what you once took part in and agreed with. That's my issue.

And what about all the things our orgs are doing currently to combat hazing incidents? You never hear anything about that but the truth is that members are being thrown out of their orgs (something that was never done in the past) for intake violations left and right. More and more members/chapters are not pledging at all and grad chapters have gotten closer to their undergrads, establishing mentor programs and relationships. All of this is going on but you never hear about it, only the negative.
