We had a fraternity disbanded on our campus a few years back and they still operate underground. One of their initiation proceedures is to brand their brothers with a lambda. It's really a horrible thing, watching these otherwise intelligent, healthy boys walking around with an infected brand on their calf or arm. But apparently, it's some sort of legacy thing for a lot of families, though I'm not sure if I would want to be a part of a legacy of leaving a raped girl out on the fraternity house lawn to be found by police...
Needless to say, at my school branding is something seen as incredibly distasteful by most Greeks and non-Greeks. Tattoos are one thing. But a brand to us means this particular fraternity, and we want no part of it.
