And while hazing is illegal in 44 states , according to a study , 73 percent of students in social fraternities and sororities reported that they experienced hazing. So we asked eight real girls to recall some of their craziest sorority stories. Here are their stories…. Needless to say I ended up deactivating. But even though that experience was awful, pledging is the most fun that I never want to have again, and as brainwashing as it sounds, it made me really genuinely care about my sorority and the girls in it.
It was run by a couple of people appointed by the advisor and no one knew who they were, but their job was to snitch. One late night at the sorority hall, probably during a hard week of testing, everyone was a little out of it and my friend dared me to take a shot of ranch. I never turn down a challenge so I took it like a champ. My friend recorded the whole thing and put it on her Snapchat story.
We also have to buy Lululemon tennis skirts and white Nike tennis shoes for rush. Or is that just the whole point? A sister confessed on another message board that the pledges rushing a sorority were made to organize a fundraiser for their chapter, which seems innocent enough — but the pledge who ended up raising the least money was forced to shave her head. Now, there are some women who rock the shaved head look and look totally fierce — but it should always, always be a choice.
This is one of those hazing practices that seems innocent enough at first, but becomes increasingly horrifying as you hear more about it. A sorority girl by the name of Joanne pledging at Penn State Altoona ended up coming forward to the news in because of a hazing ritual that involved the pledge standing and facing a concrete wall.
Well, except for the fact that if the pledges wavered or moved even the slightest bit, they were slammed face first into the wall. Not only is that horrifically brutal, but the face is a really delicate part of your body — who knows which of those pledges could have seriously harmed their face, or even gotten long-term brain damage from hitting the hard wall in just the wrong way. One of the stories she tells particular stands out because of how awful it was.
Robbins talks about the hazing experience a sister named Arika detailed to her, which involved answering trivia questions and taking a shot of straight vodka whenever they got it wrong. However, can we just say — this is majorly messed up. On the one hand, they had made the decision to start trying together.
Give it a few months, the cycles will probably end up syncing up anyway without having to dose your body with toxic chemicals in the form of Plan B. Perhaps one of the most scary parts of hazing is that, after hearing about hazing situations where the girls ended up in the hospital, things that are just plain old emotionally traumatizing almost seem not so bad — which is super messed up!
In her juicy book, Alexandra Robbins talks about a hazing ritual she saw during her time undercover in which pledges were marched into a chilly room and told to strip down to a topless state. Women have so many insecurities as it is, and so many compare themselves to others even on their best days — this is just wrong on so many levels. Two pledges rushing at Medgar Evers College, Shawntee Caton and Gabby Jones, discussed a hazing ritual where they were blindfolded, taken to a basement, and forced to sit there for a long, long time — as in, around 10 hours — being endlessly drilled with intimate questions about their personal lives and R-rated activities they engaged in.
Back in , a pledge named Britteny Starling experienced such horrendous hazing that she actually ended up suing the sorority that hazed her — and even leaving the school altogether because of how traumatic the experience was. What exactly was she put through? Unfortunately, no one was charged with his death as it was ruled as a suicide case; but it had lead to the closing of all fraternities and sororities in Alfred University.
Both were forced to take in five-gallons of water, then were left in the area to suffer without access to a clean restroom while a fan was left open to blow cold air on their skin. As they were left in the room for hours, Carrington suffered a seizure and the frat members delayed calling for an ambulance for an hour. In the hospital, Carrington was pronounced dead due to water intoxication which triggered heart failure.
The fraternity was closed and the frat members who tortured Carrington and his friend were sentenced to prison. Some of them were even hit with balloons filled with boiling water, which added to the pain they already had suffered due to the other things thrown at them by the frat men. The pledges all reported second to third degree burns given the nature of all the items used on the victims. Felony charges were given to the members of Pi Kappa Alpha and they were stripped of the officially recognized fraternities in Tulane University.
According to the account of Gamma Psi pledging Jo Burch, she and her fellow pledges were asked to engage in a hazing ritual that forced them to crawl through mud in order to get to a freezing creek while the sisters screamed and spit on them as they went.
They were also forced to sit on washing machines and for every part that the sisters see to be jiggling for any reason, it would be circled using a Sharpie and they would be ridiculed in the process. So far, no charges were given to the sorority as the Young Harris College administration denied the claims of the students. In the case, frat pledges were forced to swim in a kiddy pool filled with rotten food and excrement for hours, despite how dangerous it was for the pledges.
They were forced to eat rotten food, drink vinegar and even a mixture filled with a variety of condiments, alcohol and rotten food.
