Friends don't let friends haze their pledges

This morning, as a result of a fraternity hazing, a giant dumpster was pushed in front of a Chi Omega sorority house.

Though some may not consider such an act to be "hazing", it actually is.  In Greek life lingo, hazing is technically forcing someone to do something you wouldn't do yourself. So for instance, if you would not push a dumpster in front of a sorority house drive way in the middle of a rainy night, then you should not be forcing your pledges to.

Though there are many forms of harmless hazing that happen on numerous campuses throughout the Nation, there are also serious issues caused by hazing.

There are many myths about hazing. A lot of people are not even aware that they are participating in hazing.  And the truth is, there are many severe consequences when hazing goes wrong.

But don't get me wrong, not every fraternity or sorority house hazes.  In fact hazing occurs in many other organizations as well.

Luckily there are ways to prevent hazing from happening on college campuses. So if you are caught up in the act of hazing, there is something you can do about it. Chances are, if you're uncomfortable with what you're doing, someone else is uncomfortable with it as well.
