Wow! A lot went on on this thread while I was teaching class!
Yes, the college has told the locals they must go national. I've been told that nationwide, many locals have been made to go national because of liability...the insurance companies are no doubt hoping that national HQs will crack down on hazing so no problems will occur.
Sorority hazing has disappeared from this campus, best I can tell. I had a feeling this would happen once we got a student activities advisor who told the women that hazing just wasn't done by classy groups. I've heard other professors say that the college feared that hazing would remain if the locals stayed local. In addition, many of the most beloved professors are national Greeks.
It's a whole new ballgame here! The Greeks have freshman members who would no more haze or tolerate being hazed than I would. Numbers have gone up and there's an air of expectancy here. I can't wait to see what will happen!
