If you think there aren't kids doing copious amounts of coke at top schools, you're living under a rock. |
I have to question the intelligence of any person - man or woman - who would willingly allow themselves to be humiliated like this. At any school. |
Me too. I would think these organizations would be shut down by now or closed due to lack of interest. It’s 2024, inclusion is in , not exclusion and humiliation. I can’t think of what these people go through during hazing. And then go to class the next day and supposedly able to concentrate on their classes. |

It's 8 weeks and then your swimming in coeds for 4 years. Not unreasonable for an 18 year old man to make that trade. |
FIFY. |
On the College Confidential, University of Indiana forum moms are really upset that their daughters with sorority aspirations are discouraged from socializing with frats during the first semester because of some rules around sorority recruitment (don't recall the specifics). I was shocked reading that. Do mothers want their kids to go to college to get an education or to get laid by a bunch of 'bros' on the regular? |
My priority was getting laid! |
Let’s get real—this kind of stuff happens at just about all universities with big Greek systems. This week the news is about Michigan, last week it was UMD and UVA, next week it will be some other school. |
You must've been a popular girl! |
That's weird because my white DS is in a UM fraternity and his first president was non-white. It's one of his closest friends. There has always been a non-white person on the board. But, this isn't one that is highly ranked, so maybe your son's friend was trying to join a top frat. From what DS has told me, after rush only women are allowed at parties and other men who are friends with fraternity members and already have their name on a list. All other guys would be turned away, regardless of race. Re hazing, there is a range at UM, which I'm sure is true at any school. At low-ranked frats, hazing is more along the lines of having to do errands (pick up a brother's lunch). |
