To start a discussion on Hazing -
With recent attempts of most National Organizations to remove all forms of hazing from its chapters, the question of responsiblity comes up. When an incident occurs within a GLO that could be construde as hazing, where should the responsiblity for the action be placed? -- The individuals invovled? The University? All members of the local chapter? National officers? The National Organization?
---------------------------
I think that the Universities need to be involved more, with the members of the chapters on their campuses. They need to know what is really going on. Disciplinary actions need to be taken by the university AND the national organization. Those who have been accused of hazing, need to be dealt with by the authorities. Stricter rules against hazing need to be applied so that this problem can be better controlled.
