Zeta Phi Beta Gets The Out For Cat Food
Ok so cruising the web as we always do i ran into this little number. If you are a sorority house don’t buy the nine lives or your house will run out of lives.
From AP:
The Zeta Phi Beta sorority at Colorado State University has been expelled from the campus after allegations of hazing.
The police report is full of e-mails and written statements from seven young women hoping to become members of the sorority. Pledges told investigators they were told to do hours of strenuous exercise including running and pushups to the point that one woman has muscle spasms “and began to shake really badly.”
Two pledges said they threw up after eating raw onions. They were told they couldn’t be a Zeta until they “ate Zeta fruit, which is onions and tuna.”
“They had to exercise hard and they had to eat some gross food, but there was also a culture related to it that was sort of an escalating you don’t know what you’re going to be asked to do,” said Anne Hudgens, CSU Dean of Students.
Hudgens said the university withdrew its recognition of Zeta Phi Beta because the hazing made the pledges fear what they would have to do next and what would happen if they refused.
“They’re willing to do anything to be a member of the group and so over time as things that were asked of them got harder or worse it put them in a conflicted situation, ‘I want to be a member of this organization and what’s happening to me isn’t right’, said Hudgens.
Zeta Phi Beta’s hazing policy published on its national Web site states “Hazing is against the sorority’s rules.”
Investigators said the CSU Zeta chapter’s president “admitted that she had been involved in some hazing activities.” Another member gave investigators a different perspective in a written statement “I don’t understand what is going on. Why am I being accused of physically or mentally abusing anyone?”
The women also told police the chapter president had one of the pledges do her homework for her. The university won’t comment on the plagiarism allegation or what came of it.
CSU said Zeta Phi Beta would be welcomed back on campus in the future as long as the national organization can verify the sorority is hazing free and has effectively eliminated the culture of hazing.
The chapter does not have a sorority house. CSU’s Zeta chapter is connected with a national sorority which aims to support African American women. There were three active members and seven pledges in the CSU chapter.
Ok so the mental know today is when we haze our sisters let them sleep and give them a choice between dog food or cat food so they don’t cry to the administration. Ahh how i miss the days when you could beat them into submission to make sure they will make it as good sisters. Hello get your heads out of the clouds its a school and a sorority not a military training.
