This is where the path of hazing leads.
Posters on SAE's FB page are not happy with the change.

LaneSig: Minor correction: The page that you bring up (and the one that was mentioned it at least two Greek blogs that I have seen) is NOT the Official Sigma Alpha Epsilon page. And out of the 5 or so I am on, it is the only one that did blow up over this. Will be interesting to see what develops on the several Sigma Alpha Epsilon LinkedIn pages.
Short term is going to be hard on all involved. However we need the long term benefits for our general health and well being as an Organization.
My Brother here maybe onto something with his comments. At least it is rational and well thought out reasoning. Many of the postings on that Facebook page were far, far from it. To the point that page owner tried to moderated it. And when that failed, deleted it. Also many people, reading about it, tried to get into the page. And judging from some of the comments, the people behind them may be part of the problem(s) we as Greek Organization are having and many other GLO's are having.
