Many a National sets themselves up for chapter hazing

[James]

This may apply to National Fraternities more than some of the Sororities . . .

But . . .

ITs the lack of our National Programming that gives a chapter a lot of individual leeway for hazing.

Most sororities have a National pledge program (call it what you want) with very little "official" local variation.

This allows them to emphasize training year after year in how to run their programs. And because many of the major events and activities are structured by National and emphasized/trained year after year it eliminates some forms of hazing.

I am not saying that hazing doesn't happen, but its less likely under their system.

Most fraternities do not have a national progam, just guidelines. this measn that there can be very little training on how to run a program in terms of individual events. This allows more latitude for hazing or risky events.

I think a lot of sororities would be horrified to see how unstructured and varied our prgrams are . . .

I have to run so can't complete this post . . . any feedback so far?
