that is pathetic...

It's sad that (allegedly) another Greek org. pulled that stunt. I agree with the Police chief in the article in that it was probably another group trying to prevent them from getting pledges.

My Greek community is very small, consisting of only 4 fraternities and 4 sororities. Incidents which mirror the one in the article are not uncommon on our campus. Most of the slander happens through word of mouth. For instance, I was told by some very "in-the-know" people that in order to become a member of the Pikes on my campus (which I have since pledged and become a Brother of), one might be forced to do the following:

-Snort cocaine
-Eat a pizza with human feces on it
-Run through the girls' dorms naked
-Blind-folded and taken to a bridge, then pushed off the edge
-Many more that I can't recall

Just for the record, this is not a list of the pledge activities that I took part in. This is what I had heard from others on campus (mostly members of the other fraternities), none of which were even remotely true.

I'm not sure what the competitiveness of Rush there is, but it might certainly have instigated this hoax.
