I agree completely that, if they want to survive, fraternities are going to have to adopt rules and practices similar to those of sororities when it comes to risk management. Sororities did what they had to do to counteract the negative Greek stereotypes that started to take over in the 1970s -- fraternities, for the most part, did not. And now when you look around, 90 percent of the risk management violations probably are related to fraternities, not sororities. Same goes for the hazing violations. Just check this forum for proof -- how many articles are there about a sorority getting sued for hazing or alcohol violations?

The sorority system has actively tried to change and counteract the stereotypes, and they've done a decent job of it. I wouldn't say that the sorority system is in jeopardy. However, the fraternity system is, and sororities may end up going down with it if it goes.

I just did a search on google putting sorority closed for hazing and i had numerous pages put that phase on the page. So its not just fraternities.
