i think stuff like this is just crazy. first of all, i think it's ridiculous for "paddling" or whatever you want to call it to happen at all. i know things like this and worse are done on our campus and it's going to take something bad happening before anyone really takes notice (although there is starting to be some discipline for hazing stuff from the school). but, secondly, the responsibility can't rest solely on the initiated members of a house that hazes. anyone who is being hazed has the complete right to say no to any activity or to walk out at any time. hazing isn't right, but i don't think letting yourself be hazed is any better. and i'm sure that if this act of hazing led to something so serious that there were probably activities that happened before that could also be called hazing. i guess i just really think that the responsibility not to haze or allow hazing to happen needs to be on the shoulders of initiates and pledges from the beginning.
