Here at the CNU petitioning group, that kind of thing would also be
considered hazing and that is strictly prohibited. As a matter of fact
just today I watched a brother from another fraternity hide one of his
pledge's pin and make the pledge beg for the pin. To me, that is
completely wrong. Some people would consider it pure fun while I consider
it unfair. It also is not a good example of brotherhood.
