But there is no worse sign you can send to the world about the ability to self-govern than to let 2 pledges get to near fatal levels of intoxication on their first night as a part of our organization.
I am inclined to agree. It's one thing to celebrate and enjoy each other's company. It is quite another to drink in excess to the point of hospitalizing two new members.

Technically, it is hazing, because the house had alcohol available to the pledges. That constitutes as hazing in and of itself.
The only way this would be true is if the brother's or their representatives made it appear mandatory to drink or that some negative consequence would occur if they didn't. This situation is clearly against Beta's Risk Management Policy. However, I feel the chapter could likely be educated and changed with some involvement from the University and others. However, it's not up to us (alumni). The President's will likely be asked to vote in August.
