[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The demands of non violent hazing causes lower grades which could have a negative impact longer term. They require the pledges to clean and do manual chores and drive members around, leaving no time for studies. And if they refuse to do it they are out. [b]Freshmen are so vulnerable and it's so exploitative and wrong. [/quote][/b] It's similar to the cycle of trauma that you often see in dysfunctional families: because Person A experienced a trauma, then new Person B must also experience the trauma in order to "bond." Trauma bonding is a very real thing and see to be the psychological crux of the Greek experience. Because you experience the same trauma, I know I can trust you. The military is structured very similarly in the name of "unit cohesion."[/quote]
