I think your "we don't care" attitude regardless of whether hazing is real/dangerous is probably more harmful than good. Many say stupid stereotypes should just be ignored, but for something that is illegal and potentially harmful, I disagree. Just my humble opinion
I don't think that's what she's saying.

It's not up to us to scream "NO NO NO! Hazing doesn't happen! Come ooonnnn, we neeeeed more members!" There are plenty of people in GLOs, so it doesn't really matter if Susie PNM is swayed by the negative stereotypes. PNMs/aspirants should be researching and using common sense.

All we can do is represent our organizations in a positive light. Those who are serious about Greek life will be able to break through the clutter.
