The Merriam Webster definition states that hazing is “the practice of playing unpleasant tricks on someone or forcing someone to do unpleasant things.” Hazing is common among most fraternities, but there comes a point where hazing turns criminal. In no situation is it acceptable to physically beat a person to the point of death. Forcing a person to consume deadly amounts of alcohol is not a The recipe for a good time; it’s a jail sentence. A line needs to be drawn between punishment and initiation. Pulse Staff Rick Rojas of The New York Times reported, “Four men initially charged with murder in the hazing death of a Baruch College freshman pleaded guilty to reduced charge. The four were involved in a fraternity initiation in which the au- thorities said the 18-year-old student who died, Chun Hsien Deng, fell unconscious and the other fraternity members delayed seeking medical aid.” Aside from this tragedy at Baruch, there have been several other cases of horrific hazing, at even Ivy League schools. According to Janet Reitman of Rolling Stone Magazine, around half of the student body at Dartmouth takes part in Greek life, Morgan Chapman which consists of 17 fraternities, 11 sororities, and three coed houses. In Reitman’s article, Andrew Lohse, a student of Dart- mouth College, spoke out in disapproval of Dartmouth’s storied Greek system for encouraging a culture of “pervasive hazing, Harrison Fontaine substance abuse and sexual assault,” as well as an “intoxicating nihilism” that dominates campus social life. Daniel Patrick Galgano Lohse goes on by saying, “One of the things I’ve learned at Dartmouth – one thing that sets a psychological prece- Ben Kabakow dent for many Dartmouth men – is that good people can do awful things to one another for absolutely no reason.” He conclud- ed with, “Fraternity life is at the core of the college’s human and cultural dysfunctions.” Julia Mallon Matthew Mutkoski An unnamed freshman from the University of Delaware stated, “Although no one wants to undergo hazing, rush week just isn’t the same without it.” He went on by saying, “I feel the upperclassmen don’t respect us because we didn’t expe- Sean Puente rience what they had to.” Will Shelden It is understood why some upperclassmen feel this way. Making it through a week of hell strengthens the bond between fraternity brothers, but at the same time, Greek life shouldn’t just be about making it through a week of near-death Jacob Sklar experiences. How do we separate hazing from initiation? The problem in these fraternities is not the people, it’s the things these people do when exposed to excess amounts of drugs and alcohol. The lifestyle is all about constant partying, and it is a struggle for many to know when enough is enough. Faculty Advisors Instead of eliminating Greek life as a whole, fraternities need to understand and learn the dangers and consequences Lesley Boltz of their actions. Drinking is bound to happen on a college campus regardless of whether it is in a fraternity or not, but colleges Virginia Holmes need to understand this and learn to moderate it. Drinking needs to be controlled, not taken away so it can be done in secret. In conclusion, none of these students being sent away to prison are ruthless killers. They are regular people who made a mistake, but the problem is there is no way to make up for it once the damage is done. Colleges need to intervene and deal with these problems before they arise, but in a way that does not take away all aspects of Greek life. Trying to totally eliminate alcohol and Greek life will only make the problem worse.

A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

He was an elusive player on the field, putting fear in the eyes of the opposing team before he even set foot on the field. King KP Kyle would explode in the open field, uncatchable by any defender. Not only was he a stud running back but he also By Shawn Soucie made many key stops of defense, and some big important returns on special teams. As the snow started to fall and the falling of leaves came to an end, so did fall sports. Multiple players led the boys sports teams to successful seasons. Captains Danny Griffiths, Joey Harris, Sergy Choz, and David Herbst led the soccer team to the second round of districts for the first time in years. Captain Connor Friend helped bring the cross country team to a successful season. Captains Billy Roberts, Kyle Padeni, Michael Mercier, and AJ Brown led the football team to the Central Mass Championship game for the first time in years. There were outstanding performances by all of the boys teams this fall. One athlete this fall rose to the challenge. Despite starting the season off with an injury he followed to excel on his return scoring the only touchdown in his first game back, leading the team to victory. Saying Kyle Padeni excelled this season is an understatement. Kyle finished the year with 95 carries (Lowest in the top 15) and 1121 yards, averaging 11.8 yards per carry and 20 touchdowns (4th in Central Mass.) in only nine games.Kyle won the Central Mass Division MVP.
