Is hazing the best way?

That's fine. I just hope he isn't in an NPHC fraternity.

I completely disagree and a Soror betnot ever come to GC asking such questions and using that as an excuse.

But why are email/facebook/fraternity message board/private forum the only options other than GC? Before the prevalence of the Internet we visited other campuses and they came to our campus. People talked to each other and exchanged phone numbers. I could see if there are no chapters in a driving distance. If there are chapters in a driving distance, why is the Internet seen as the only tool of communication?

Finding the websites for chapters in your area and contacting (emailing) the chapters makes much more sense than coming to GC as a first resort. Then again, that's just how I was "raised."
