Great read lifesaver. What I don't understand is WHY neither side seems to get it.
You have a "pledge", you chose him because he posseses characteristics like dignity, intelligence, trustworthy...and then this very pledge allows these same traits to be broken and what...reassembled? It does NOT make sense!
I can attest to the fact that hazing was a HUGE issue for many of the young men rushing with my son. It was a HUGE factor in the cuts some of the PNMs made. They talked about it in their groups and on their dorm floors. One chapter in particular was charming, had a close brotherhood, but when the boys "heard"...from SEVERAL sources...one of their practices, many dropped them like a hot potato!
Are there that many highly successful chapters that endorse hazing? Or, are these chapters seeing their numbers dwindle over time? I wish someone would do a study on that. Maybe they could find out if it's become a poison pill to the chapters that continue this practice. I just can't help but wonder.
