Sigma Chi doesn't have hell week. We have an I-week which means it is for I(you). Its a week long with events each night to make you think about how you have lived your life, your qualities and even your areas you lack in. Its a really good week that allows you to discover yourself by thinking about things. Everyone learns a lot about themselves indiviudally, as a pledge class and before becoming a NIB.
The whole broken arm thing is a joke. They pick out a pledge and make him wear a cast for the next couple of weeks either during their I-week or after initation. I think it was originally intended to show people their initiation is hard and not for weak people...now its just a stupid tradition. A fraternity here at UNF does it every year except the NIB wears a cast on his right thumb...i don't even think there is a legitimate reason.
