And please if you do find something or know something, please add a source.
Thanks again!

I believe roots of hazing go back atleast as far as Emperor Justinian of the Byzantine Empire. A librarian at a library will show you how to do research if you dont know how.

I'll see your Justinian and raise you a few Spartans.
Meanwhile torr, Harvard expelled a student for hazing in 1657, which I think predates WWII. (See? A source for you.)

I think she is one of the many people who thinks hazing is a strictly fraternal happening.

THIS.IS.SPARTAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
Hazing has existed for as long as any kind of group relationships existed. However, we can probably only document back but so far.

Eisenhower also honorary.
Eisenhower was also an honorary brother ( http://www.tau-epsilon-phi.com/EpsilonEta) and initiated in 1967
Truman was Honorary and initiated in 1945. ( http://www.crossandcrescent.com/2006...-a-lambda-chi/)
Wonder how many others in the list were honorary.

He probably thought it meant he would get to go to four times the mixers.
That was too easy.
