[quote=Anonymous]Yes, hazing happens and I think it’s fair to say it’s much more prevalent in fraternities than sororities. I was in a sorority in the 90s. Our hazing consisted of being given a curfew and then kidnapped and walked through campus and a frat party in our pjs. No nakedness and no sex list. If anything the older members of our chapter were the purity police and very focused on the chapter’s campus image. Outrageous behavior or sleeping around earned you a visit to the standards committee. No robes in our chapter, we wore our own white dresses for ceremonies. Yes, we’re all sworn to secrecy but honestly who gives a crap after you graduate.

My son pledged a frat when he went to school and was locked in a room with fellow pledges, a puke bucket, and a ton of alcohol they were forced to drink. The pledges were also expected to spend a lot of money on things for older brothers - food, alcohol, party supplies, etc. DS was practically broke before first semester ended. DS ended up dropping out. According to him the chapter did nothing but drink - no philanthropy, intramurals, etc.
