I was told that I was rushing a fraternity that did not condone hazing, and guess what, the first meeting they are checking us for wires and then it comes. 8 weeks of hell, including an actual hell weekend. This is a serious issue, and the national organizations are turning there back. I know that every IFC fraternity at my University "educates" as they say now there pledges and I dont care if people dont believe it, it is the truth. Furthermore, I am of a firm belief now that education between pledge brothers builds that sense of brotherhood that you cannot obtain with a different process. Lets face it, the common roots of fraternities hazed, and today it is not nearly as harsh as it was back then, however, it still exists. Does anyone have any thoughts on this, and also, does anyone want to anonymously admit that their chapter educates? I hope this is a beneficial forum for this highly important issue in greek life.
LOL!! Sorry, that part just killed me over here...

Only because wireless devices were not around when I pledged. But they did check to make sure I did not have one of these in my backpack:
