Indiana University Frat Hazing

[JTCasper540_MN]

One of Indiana Universitys frat was recently suspended after a video of sexual hazing surfaced on the internet...

sooo what are your guys thoughts?

are frats cool and stuff for the charity they do?

are most frats like this?

 

[Snowgoner]

supposedly it was an initiated member, so it wasn't hazing. really gross nonetheless... still don't understand why this is cause for national outrage though. everyone involved was over 18, and none of this appeared to be forced. not a great look for frats, but people need to stop getting offended over stupid shit

 

[S.J.W]

As fucked up as it is, there's nothing to be really be outraged about. Yeah it's kinda disgusting and every person in that room should probably have a good hard look at themselves but as long as it was consensual the frat really shouldn't be suspended.

 

[Peter.]

typical media blowing something out of proportion. saying he was "forced" with absolutely no proof

 

[Culture+]

fucking inbred 'follow the heard' types will do anything to gain approval no matter how sadistic it is.

I was never a fan of Greek life. I don't own salmon chubbies

Two things:

1. My best bud from high school goes to IU and his roommate rushed that frat this fall. My buddy asked his roommate if he was a part of it cuz it looks like him in the video, and he just didnt respond... lololol

2. Frats are really dumb. I don't get it at all, and don't give me that charity reason it's total BS.

3. Random story, going back to the fucked up things they do, my roommates dad rushed this frat at MSU and had to buy a puppy, raise it for a year and then drown it in the river by campus, needless to say the guy had a soul and walked. (with the doge of course)

Okay so I made three points instead of two, eat me

Bahahaha, there is no way. Dude, you got told a tall tale and bought it hook, line, and sinker

hahaha thats awesome

 

[Toaster-Tony]

I'm part of a small, private chapter fraternity and whenever I see stuff like this it never ceases to blow my mind. The pledging process is usually kept secret for the fact that if everyone knew what went on, there would be no spark of interest in it and it would kinda take away of the mystique of pledging itself.

With that being said, private events weren't even close to the same scale as this. It mostly consisted of legitimate team building shit followed by beer drinking and socializing... you know, stuff that actually builds a sense of brotherhood and community. Then, the next morning (which usually was either sat or sun), we'd wake up as a group and drag and our hungover asses to a food shelf or charity drive and put in community service to build our resumes, work experience, and P.R.

I know there are plenty of people who hate fraternities, and after seeing more and more leaks like this, I really can't blame people. I'm not going to deny that there are some fucked up organizations out there that do stuff like this, but in that, we take pride in being a testament that not all fraternities are the same.

As far as I see it, fraternities probably won't be around too much longer. There has been a clear drop in people pledging since incidents like this have come to light. In some cases, it might be for the better, but if my chapter is affected by this, it will be sad to see it dissolve.

lol i've heard this story so many times... not true whatsoever

 

[PeppermillReno]

Its paying for friends to fit in.

Hey I get it being a 19 year old sophomore who can't go to the bars makes you want to be part of the big parties. I almost joined ATO (this one) or SAE (racist one) glad I never did. Eating multiple sticks of butter to have friends and being degraded wouldn't have been chill I know what people went through to get into them.

Frat defenders are just the dorky kids in the frat who's only claim to fame or popularity is being in the frat anyone cool is well over it by the time they are seniors.

Surprised more people who quit during rush don't snitch on the frats for what they do to you thats what is shocking not that sheep do it for friends but that the people who get fucked with and don't get in take it without getting some revenge.

I mean it all sounds great but why can't you do this stuff on your own?

 

[californiagrown]

Logistics make it nearly impossible.

It's like asking why any organization exists. An organization allows a group to profit from the combined resources and talent. Same deal.

 

[deleted5]

I was gonna say that has to be a stripper. Why would you ever film that and incriminate yourself and your fraternity?

 

[Toaster-Tony]

Not saying you can't. But at least for me, I'd never thought about volunteering a food drives or shelters before I joined. I ended up pledging my junior year, but for the first two I pretty much was living what I thought was the college dream- drinking and partying non-stop while scraping by in school during the week. I would run into a lot of the guys either at parties or on campus and I even played hockey with a few in high school so I figured it wouldn't hurt to figure out what the hell they did all the time.

I sat down with a couple buddies and got the lowdown on what they stood for and what their schedule looked like and I ultimately decided that I could be using my time outside of class a lot better. I honestly don't think I would have had the drive to get up on Sunday mornings to pack dinners for the homeless or help put on charity events if it wasn't for 10-15 other guys that went with me. Overall it was cool to find a group a guys and girls (sororities) that wanted to have fun throughout college but at the same time, pushed each other to meet grades and build their resumes at the same time.

I know tons of people who have no problem getting up and being productive at the crack of dawn, but for someone like me who struggles to motivate most days of the week, Greek life has definitely helped me get out and apply myself in areas I really never thought I'd get in involved with.

 

[skierman]

Oh look another group of entitled spoiled brats doing fucked up things to each other. I'm completely shocked by this. I thought a group of socially inept chadbros who can't make friends on their own without paying for it would make better decisions in life...

 

[ahill]

I go to Purdue University, and the jokes this week at school about this had me rolling all week.

For those of you that don't know, we're rival universities and literally hate one another.

 

[theabortionator]

Fuck you guys! You don't know the first thing about fraternities. You're all just going off of bullshit you've heard and your shitty opinions about how they're all bad. I'm a junior right now and my frat does stuff to give back to the community sometimes. Also we always have each others backs. It's a community like this is supposed to be.

You guys are all haters!

FUCK YOU!!!!!!@!!!

 

[skierman]

Fuck fraternities.

FUCK YOU!!!!!!@!!!

Whoa dude, calm down. We understand your hatred for frats but that's just over the line.

 

[theabortionator]

Whoa dude, calm down. We understand your hatred for frats but that's just over the line.

You're such a piece of shit! You don't know the first thing about greek life. I bet all you know bet all you know is what you seen on tv and heard online and stuff. You probably don't even have any friends in farts and probably didn't even go to college.

Just because somebody chooses to join a frat doesn't mean there lame. Frats get a bad rap but its not like all of them is doing the shit you see in the news. It's a lame few that ruin it for the many.

To people in the thread. I encourange you if your going to college to look into maybe pledging a frat. It's a great time. You wont be dissapointed.

 

[coldcuts69]

Frats are poison. Frats are bad.

End of story.

 

[S.J.W]

I don't even have any friends

Is this why you joined a frat?

 

[ANDR01D]

Only issue I have with fraternities is some of the group violence I've seen. My buddy and I had to break up a fight next door to us a couple of years ago because a 16 year old got into the party, got drunk, and decided to steal one of the house paddles. Well, they chased him into the yard, tackled him, and just started stomping him. One of the kids grabs the paddle and goes to crack it over the back of his head when my buddy grabs him and talks them all down while I check out the kid. He is obviously concussed (at the very least), so we find a couple of his friends and have them take him to the ER.

All of this was because a 16 year old stole a shitty wood paddle with some letters hot-glued on it.

Obviously, this isn't the norm, but it wasn't the only one I saw during my undergrad years, and I'm sure a few of you have heard at least one horror like this.

This is what it looks like when you have had to suck all your frat boys dicks, and cant live with yourself. Denial, is not just a river in Egypt.

 

[snowpocalypse]

I have plenty of friends that were into FARTS. Hell I'm 35 and still think they are funny.

PS I went to college and didn't pay for friends. Well at least the male kind.

 

[theabortionator]

Yeah laugh it up mister cool guy on the internet.

This is what it looks like when you have had to suck all your frat boys dicks, and cant live with yourself. Denial, is not just a river in Egypt.

I bet you wouldn't say that to my face. I've had a gym membership since I was 16. I could crush you.

Pay for friends? What the fuck are you even talking about?

You guys are probably all just angry because you got turned away from a frat party or one of the brothers fucked you're girl or something.

You guys are pathetic losers.

I'm going to use some of the money from my energy drink business to open a gym. I'll be running a gym doing what I love while you're still flipping burgers or living in your moms basement.

Sorry you guys aren't cool enough to join a frat.

I'd still offer you a beer just because that's how we are onlike you haters.

No time for haters

To the moon

Holy shit you are nailing the frat bro stereotype.

 

[270on420out]

How can you not recognize the blatant trolling

 

[1337]

fucked you're girl or something.

nice one.

 

[JGWI]

Holy shit you are nailing the frat bro stereotype.

I was thinking the same thing!

 

[AidanCski]

That is so fucked. I hate to be "this kid" but the people who spend all their time in college partying, getting fucked up, and doing nothing but socializing, are gonna have a huge reality check when they look back at college and realized they absolutely wasted their parents money. They are also gonna have a tough time getting a job with a 2.1 GPA and a suspension on their resume. While I certainly like to have fun and yes occasionally get fucked up with my friends, I'm a pretty academic kid so for me, doing something this stupid is just really fucked.

 

[S.J.W]

Hence why I said he was nailing the frat boy stereotype

I am literally shaking in my boots.

 

[TBK_ski.co]

People need to learn the difference between hazing and fun.

 

[maxwags9]

There is no proof to back a statement like this up douchebag, get a life and don't shit on people that actually would be successful later on.

You really are making yourself look like a scumbag. Hope you thought my input helps.

 

[maxwags9]

I may as well be able to beat the shit out of you if I want, you cannot compare your strength to someone behind a computer.

 

[ianrich511]

I hear TBK is actually a gay fraternity. The only way in is to blow their dads.

Neither am I. I only own the Nantucket Red chubbies.

 

[S.J.W]

ok first off none of u kids understand the context of a frat, y'all just talk about attending shit schools like MSU, u of u, montana, and schools where greek life is irrelevant

if you go to a school like cornell, umich, penn state, ohio state, indiana, or pretty much any big 10 fucking school, greek life is huge

y'all got to understand that greek life runs indiana

if u r in greek life u make way more friends, get way more pussy, and meet so many more ppl than u would if u weren't in it.

Really had to create an alias to defend greek life? Shows how proud you are to be in a frat to not even use your real account

 

[theabortionator]

I am literally shaking in my boots.

Yeah probably your 2012 boots. I'll be shredding in brand new boots for the rest of my life thanks to the sick job options I'm going to get through my frat, and alumni from it.

Have fun slaving away for the man at some mediocre job. At least I'll have a sick job and good friends for life.

There is no proof to back a statement like this up douchebag, get a life and don't shit on people that actually would be successful later on.

You're probably not even out of high school. What do you even know about frat life? Nothing.

PS: FUCK YOU!

K bye

I have heard at my school, WVU, that the make kids eat out strippers haha

Why would you make a assumption like that? I might as well be 35 years old, you cannot make a ignorant assumption based on someone's online profile. You are just digging your self deeper and deeper.

You've got like 5 posts. I bet you couldn't even shotgun a beer without puking.

 

[maxwags9]

Thats pretty lame if you think you should be proud of that in the real world. I'm not saying that i can or cannot shotgun a beer. But your just making yourself seem like a fucking tool. If you think that you are better for being able to party hard every weekend, while having laid 35 chicks within the same night, your really someone that people should be proud of, No, your full of shit. With your logic and grammar, your probably going to live your life feeling like an absolute dipshit, and have to survive with minimum wage at the convenience store. You pretty much make yourself look like that by the way you speak to me.

 

[ianrich511]

This is truly some of your best trolling I have ever seen.

 

[HamFaceGirl]

Nothing wrong with a bit of hazing. If you don't want it don't sign up for it

 

[ATLskier]

wow, some serious shit in this thread....

As for greek life, it can be fun, educational, and helpful depending on your circumstances.

Being at a school that was 35% greek, social lives were pretty much only possible through greek life (that is unless LAN parties and video games and shit are considered part of a social life). Not all fraternities are the same. They vary by fraternity to fraternity, chapter to chapter and school to school. ATO at Georgia Tech is going to be very different from ATO at Michigan.

Being in a fraternity is not paying for friends. Look at what dues pay for. Most of it is fun social trips, others are for house maintenance, parties, philantrophy, school related functions(homecoming, greek week), etc. If that is paying for friends, then you are paying for friends when you spend money to go on trips with them, eat out with them, etc.

 

[Skitnit]

Oh no! They made him eat out a stripper? He had to eat pussy in front of people to join a frat? Damn either that stripper was nasty as fuck or this guy had it easy. Eating pussy is nothing compared to what he could have had to do...

 

[skierman]

wow,

Being in a fraternity is paying for friends.

THANK YOU!
