This is one of those topics where the person can read the hazing headlines and draw their own conclusions. Whether they want to pursue Greekdom is completely up to them. We aren't suffering for members and don't need to convince anyone of anything.
That's not a good reason. As a Greek, I am offended by Greek members who choose to haze, and I do consider it my responsibility inform non-Greeks that it is a negative stereotype and like most stereotypes, only applies to a small few. I think your "we don't care" attitude regardless of whether hazing is real/dangerous is probably more harmful than good. Many say stupid stereotypes should just be ignored, but for something that is illegal and potentially harmful, I disagree. Just my humble opinion
