<p>I think this kind of hazing comes from a culture of alpha dog personalities. A perfect storm, if you will, of a certain type of kid: the right amount of these kids, the ability to gain leadership positions, and other kids that “go-along-to get-along”. </p>
<p>I’ve seen a great group of Frat boys that all the girls love, described as “the guys that protect us”. This whole class of kids stays together through the 3-4 years of college. Then a new group comes in and everything changes. All colleges have to take a very strong stand against hazing and throw any Sorority or Frat off campus if anything untoward happens.</p>
