If you are really worried about death, realize that the number 1 cause of death in hazing incidents is alcohol poisoning. Don't drink more alcohol than you are used to drinking. NPC sororities do not have a strong history of hazing with resulting death, so I'm not sure where you got this idea. Unfortunately, when men haze, the result can be more deadly. For women, hazing usually involves more psychological forms of abuse.

When you go through recruitment, if you hear that a group hazes, realize that where there is smoke, there is probably fire. If you chose to pledge that group, you may have to deal with hazing. Most likely, this will be psychological or verbal abuse, but you do NOT have to take it. Contact your Greek Advisor or call the Hazing hotline. Hazing only has power when the people being hazed let the hazers have power over them. Sorority membership isn't important enough to put yourself at risk if it comes to that, so just walk away.
