Why would you expect for there to be a link to facts associated with his opinion that hard work equals hazing? 
C'mon now.

Good hazing?
Then why are so many, in just the past few days, getting their butts kicked and closed down?
Something to do with regulations, policy, and law...?
As has been descussed to death here, times are changing and if one does not change with them, they will be gone......

No but this isn't a topic of "facts" unless people were throwing out certain specifics. An opinion on hazing and hard work doesn't count as a certain specific.

Requiring pledges to do study halls is technically "hazing." Even if the pledges end the semester with 4.0 GPAs.
So there IS good "hazing" based on both the intent and outcome.

DSTCHAOS;
Interesting point. However, it is not one that I recall ever being used to defend what is generaly refered to as Hazing on this board or threads.
Nor is it, IMHO and IMHB, was the posting/poster I quoted was refering to.

At some point, most people will get hazed, whether it be for a collegiate group, a team, or just in life. It might not be fair, but that's the way it is.

Well, hazing is stupid. And I mean that with some common sense. For example, taking out pledges for dinner or something or to study is a part of pledging. Making them eat rotten eggs until their sick, or something like that, is disgusting and doesn't build brotherhood or sisterhood. It builds dysfunctional families (in the greek sense). Pledging=work, both mental and physical, but unfortunately, some people take it too far.
Sorry it took so long to respond. I got some calls at work.

I have no idea what anyother GLO's policy is, but anything according to LXA's regulations that makes a New Member Associate do some thing that does not include an Active is against the rules.
This also includes manatory study periods which I do not agree with as there is supposedly one reason people go to college, GRADUATE!
In making a NMA has to learn the National/Local History, that should be part of the induction with tests to see if they know the information. They will carry the knowledge and information to pass it along to new members.
If not, where is the history and lore of the GLO?
Why not just start a club of Tap a keg a day, rent a slum house and have partys?
Why do some ask, because some dumb asses HAZE and it becomes public information because of bodily harm and it affects all of us!
