What do you hope to gain by making your NMs do pushups, chores, laps?
Our NM program (as I believe all official NM programs do) has a purpose for each required section.
-- Interviews with active sisters: Learn more about the active sisters within your organization.
-- Candidate Class Project: Develop a candidate class philanthropy, while learning leadership and planning an event of your own. Good for management and cultivating the values of my organization
-- Quizzes and Final Exam (which can be retaken as many times as need be): learn the fundamentals of the organization
-- Sexual Assualt and Alcohol Education Classes
-- Pledge Retreat: bonding with actives and candidates.
-- etc.
How does demeaning your NMs achieve the ideals and objectives of your organization?
That's why I'm anti-hazing: not just because it's demeaning and dangerous, but because it accomplishes nothing towards making your NM a human being worthy of your organization's letters.
