I think that you are probably right about it being in the early to mid 90s. I would actually say early vs. mid-90s.

I pledged an NPC at my first school (left school the last week of semester due to health and had to depledge), and every chapter at my first school had "hell week", vs. what is now often known as "inspiration week". I saw a great similarity in the hostility towards the pledges in the video, to how some chapters treated theirs during h-week. Some of it was downright humiliating.

Note: I later transferred schools (to be closer to my doctors), and pledged and initiated Gamma Sigma Sigma.

Many of the changes in pledge education (now called NM or MIT period) over the past decade are positive, since they proactively set limits on the potential for emotional and physical injury. But I do think that in general, across the board, the interpretation of some of the rules have been taken too far.

(This is my personal opinion and do not reflect those of my chapter or my national organization)
