zeta ace is on point. how many folks who pledged are active and financial? how many pledgers do you know who have nightmares? or still harbor ill feeling towards their big brothers or sisters? i know of several who refuse to be active because of the abuse that inflicted upon them. not because of the bond between brothers but because that stuff was done to them(the big brother/sisters). certainly there is something to be said for working hard for a goal. but, endangering people's lives is not what any of our orgs are about. every other day we hear in the news about some org paying out millions of dollars to someone who 'pledged' and died or was seriously injured. many groups have discussed eliminating collegiate chapters all together because of the liability that they present for headquarters. none of us want to see that happen. so, discussion like these in such a public forum hurt, not help the situation.
