I hate to tell you this, but you can "bond" without being the "scum of the earth". We call our "pledges" New Members.... and these women are just as bonded as I was to my class when I was treated like I was "scum of the earth". How resonable is to treat someone like crap for 6 weeks and then one day stand up and call them "brother" or "sister"? Do you think those members feel like they are a valuable part of the organization?
Fact is the face of the college student is changing and no one wants to waste their time jumping through hoops and doing stupid things to "prove" themselves worthy. Greeks have to start offering recruits more.... more leadership opportunities, networking, positive programming, if we're going to recruit the "best and brightest" out there and stay alive.
