BCResearcher: In fact, we (undergraduates) were told not to communicate with graduate members, only to our designated advisor
Dr Jones: These stories are not unusual. It is a deep-seated culture that is not slowing down and is often defended by many black Greeks.
Lking: BGLO do not seem to serve the same purpose or populations, oddly enough the needs of students have not changed. maybe we should ask how BGLOs enhance the campus
Trapper: involve them in university programs that relate to hazing
Titilayo Akinmusuru: @ buffalo... there are 2 sides to that argument... a) why would someone hurt that child so badly? b) why would that person allow themselves to be disrespected in such a manner. I think that education needs to be done on both sides.
MzQStorm: I agree with Dr. Parks... I think that we as grads need to really review what we've been doing and come up with something better
SP92ACE: The issue is broader than Greekdom and I have said on numerous occasions
Haze History: We put in place a program that they can agree to and they can "earn" their letters
diamondsquare86: Hazing is not just limited to BLGO's, it extends to athletics and other non-BLGO orgs. It is a constant in grad chapters and has a place in the rituals to promote bonding. The level of hazing is the limit that we must consider- what is acceptable and what is not - and that is the key to controlling
Trapper: contact the Greek life advisors and ensure that the BGLOs are participating in the proper new member education that the universities offer.
Lking: its hard for most "hazed" Greeks to separate their identity from their intake experience
HGSE2000: There seems to be a tendency to criticize all Greeks for the actions of a few. Hazing is banned by ALL BGLOs. Those individuals that still haze are in violation of organization policy and if caught, they will be criminally charged.
