I must respectfully diagree with this statement. Pledging was NOT safer 15-20 years ago when it was "above ground" because "under ground" hazing still occured. The difference between now and then is the technology that makes the reporting of it more widespread now. We just didn't hear about it then the way we do now and in fact situations were purposely kept quiet. There were deaths, maimings, etc. then that led to the abolishment of pledging. HBCUs were threatening the removal of all BGLOs.
I agree with you 100%. When I started college in 1987, the chapter of a sorority which i wont name, on my campus, was serving out a suspension for something that was done to the pledgees two years before. This is during the above ground pledge process so I dont believe changing the MIP Process is going to do anything?
