Granted, hazing sucks and to get beaten overly drunk to maybe die is STUPID! But some of this has gone much to far!
New Assoc. Members should have to learn the history of the local chapter and the International! They should have study time to keep the Grades (After All That Is Why They are in College)!
We use to have a tractor tire painted white and rolled to Soro Houses for Signatures, Paddles made for Big Brothers, and A Large Paddle made by the class with their names on it with their class designation. These Large Paddles are hung on the walls of the House and the Alums love to come back and find theirs to show their kids!
But according to International, this shows a form of Hazing and is verboten!!!!!!
Well, I say BS!
There is a reason for things so that young men can bond but I never found bonding was from getting your ass beat or making one drink until he may die! Stupidity comes in all shapes and sizes!
