An example is the death of Maxwell Gruver, a freshman fraternity pledge at Louisiana State University. As part of an initiation game called “Bible Study,” Gruver had to recite the Greek Alphabet from memory; if he messed up, he had to chug hard liquor and was pelted with hot sauce and mustard (Willen). Gruver passed away the next day at a nearby hospital. His blood-alcohol level

An Open Letter About Joining a Sorority To the Upcoming Freshman Who Doesn’t Know if She Should Rush, Introduction: I know exactly what you are going through. At the beginning of my freshman year, I swore to myself that I would never join a sorority. I thought it was weird, cult-like, and that I didn’t need to pay money to have friends.
