Pledges get hazed all the time. She killed herself because she was depressed. Depression is real; placing blame on external factors ignores the root problem.

Prayers 🙏🙏

“But hazing isn’t allowed!” Yea and Chicago has strict gun control but reality often isn’t determined by laws

This is so unfortunate and tragic. The fact that they have a NO hazing policy AND sororities and fraternities are required to receive education about it is so frustrating. This isn’t what sisterhood’s about! So many srats were built with meaning and they are trashing their legacy

There is a strict no hazing policy tho, this is horrible!

Tragic.

Tragic.

Why is hazing even still allowed? SMH.

More reason colleges/universities need to be shutdown. Hazing and brainwashing centers are no longer needed in society.

Mother of suicide victim files lawsuit against sorority that allegedly hazed her daughterThe Northwestern University basketball player was subjected to hazing that hurt her 'physical, mental, and emotional health,' causing severe anxiety and depression, the suit claims. Committed? Show Mama the money! Why is the sorority more responsible for her mental state than she or her parents? Wasn't membership voluntary? Was death the punishment for leaving? Why not just leave the sorority?

UVA tells Latina sorority studying 25 hours a week is hazing, lawsuit saysA Latina sorority says it was wrongly punished for hazing by the University of Virginia after requiring its members to study 25 hours a week. I read the article and UVA's claim is exactly as absurd as it sounds. At this rate I think kids know what they are getting into when they join a sorority. The smart ones avoid it. Yep, some ppl go to collegel to study and prepare for a successful life. Then there are the others. Kinda like in the real world. There's the boss... & all the employees.
