[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a tradition that has outlived its usefulness [/quote] I agree with this. I was in a sorority, and I really loved it, but I think the negatives outweigh the benefits at this point, especially for young men. Until hazing that involves forced drinking, drugging, humiliation and physical abuse is dealt with using zero tolerance policies, I will not encourage my two sons. For me, it was a lovely experience and some of closest friends now (in my 50s) are my sorority sisters, but the "hazing" I experienced was based on good natured ribbing, not masochism. [/quote] I agree with most of this. I was in a sorority too in college. However, I think zero tolerance policies make things worse. The higher you make the stakes for those that report whose activities aren’t exactly Boy Scouts the less likely they are to report. There needs to be more openness and more communication.[/quote]
