[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, of course.

[b]And it happens outside of frats.[/b]

My college banned frats for hazing and then found the various clubs picked up the slack... the theater society or whatever it was was vicious—it was different vicious, no dog cages and elephant walks, but it was cruel, involved drugs, alcohol, sexual humiliation and sleep deprivation.

Hell, I was the editor in chief of the student paper and we hazed the shit out of freshmen writers.

18-22 kids who are offered power/freedom from adult supervision are very mean to newbies.[/quote]

My DS played D3 baseball at a college that does not have fraternities and sororities - he just graduated so was a freshman in 2021-22.  His baseball team hazed the freshmen players.  I found out his freshman year.  One of his fellow freshman teammates ended up in the emergency room with serious alcohol poisoning after a hazing party.  [/quote]

Ugh . . . do you mind saying where? My DS is on the verge of committing to play at an academic D3 school without a Greek system, and this concern has been on the back of my mind. A former Seton Hall player recently sued the school, alleging that the baseball coach there turned a blind eye to violent hazing there. I worry that this is more common than parents think.[/quote]
