10 Tulane Pikes Arrested for Hazing
10 members of the Eta Chapter of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity commonly referred to as Pike have been arrested or have an arrest warrant out for their arrest in connection to charges of hazing pledges. The event that resulted in this arrest occurred on April 25 when several members of Pike poured boiling water on their pledges. 2 pledges were severely burned and had to be taken to the hospital. They were said to be covered with second and third degree burns. Tulane as of 5/6/08 has suspended the fraternity from the campus but Pike nationals have not yet revoked their charter. I was friends with one of the guys who got burnt but i had not talked after he rushed Pike. i wish him the best of luck in his recovery and i hope everything turns out well for him but from what i have heard he will have to have some plastic surgery.
