Huh?

That's not true. I am in a local sorority and we follow school policy when it comes to hazing. Kent State University has strict rules about hazing that are not easy to avoid. While going through my new member period (the term "pledge" is even considered hazing) within my sorority if I felt even remotely uncomfortable during the process it was considered hazing. However at no time during that period did I feel uncomfortable. In fact, my sisters were very loving and respectful and still are.

Also, though locals can abide by many of their own rules such as being able to change their colors or GPA requirement to get in, remember that all nationals started off as locals. Please don't look at "Sorority/Fraternity Life" and think that's what locals are all about. In fact, the president of Phi Gamma Pi and I having an on-going joke that if MTV were to ever put us on "Sorority Life," they'd have to create their own drama because we don't have any.
