Because (as stated previously) they know that the sorority is going to report back "well, Vincent didn't know the words to your sweetheart song" or whatever. We often had fraternity pledges come to the house on scavenger hunts or other pledge duties. Not to this degree, it seems like these chicks need to get a couple boy on boy videos and just make the guys do their dishes or something.

Lol. If that's the way you roll I've got no problem. I just know we never asked guys to do body shots off each other. Then again this was in the days before male waxing

They go along with it because they lose face if they can't handle what the girls dish out. Whenever I hear about hazing, I don't get why the pledges go along with it... whether it's doled out by their own chapter or another chapter. But I also don't get why the members ever think it is a good idea.

33girl, we did the same stuff you mention back in the 90s. One fraternity always sent one of their pledges around to all of the sorority houses with a few brothers and all of the sororities contributed to dressing him up like a girl. The whole body shots thing in this story is just weird!

More Interim Suspensions and Investigations at UConn: This Time, Delta Gamma and Sigma Chi
UConn has put the DG and Sigma Chi chapters on interim suspension pending an investigation of alleged hazing; see
http://www.nbcconnecticut.com/news/l...254944291.html
This is different from – but obviously similar to -- the interim suspension of DZ.
The report ^^ mentions suspensions of Kappa and SAE, also.

I was originally disappointed that ADPi was not presenting at UConn, but after seeing all of these allegations I'm glad we're not potentially expanding in a culture like that. Hopefully if UConn opens up again down the road these problems will have begun working themselves out and we might be able to return to campus.

Another issue at UConn is inequitable housing. Gamma Phi Beta is in a dorm and the new group would also be in a dorm, while the other groups have houses. From the write up I saw, this seems to be the permanent arrangement. Housing inequity rarely works out well.

Isn't BGSU changing their Fraternal Housing to meet this inequality?

UConn sororities are not in houses, per se. They are housed in Husky Village or in one certain residence hall (see http://greeklife.uconn.edu/housing/). I don't live in Storrs, but am over that way a few times a year (I live on the other side of the state).

The school website still has those two groups listed. I find that interesting in light of the news on here.
