Story link to hazing and other charges against Pi Kappa Alpha, Sigma Phi Epsilon and Kappa Kappa Gamma at GWU.
Month: May 2011
Moderator:Â Hoping the student body buys into this. The administrators and PR machine at Utah State are saying all the right things. Time will tell.
Kudos to Starks family and certain USU administrators for trying to end USU’s string of hazing deaths at one tragic loss.
That case supposedly came up for trial, but details on the Internet have either been scarce or I just cannot find them. This was the last item I found.
The school board is hiding (in the above article) behind FERPA.
Our opinion: The school board is wrong to hide the info. Two of the accused are 18 and legally adults.
Weber says the five students were suspended Monday through
Wednesday and will return to school today. The boys will not be
able to play in any basketball games for two weeks.”
The clock is ticking before Charles Barkley does something that ends his career as a sports commentator. That isn’t exactly something anyone needs a fortune teller for, I’d say. Moderator.
Barkley’s tomfoolery cost rookie defenseman Jared Spurgeon $5,000 for the meal. Wonder how many homeless people in the area that amount might have fed for a night. No, this isn’t the dangerous part of hazing unless impressionable high school students get the idea that such buffoonery is normal in sport, but it does point out a certain “goofball” mentality about the pro-hazing commentators that ESPN managers will have to face when Barkley eventually self destructs. For example, when goofball towel wavers taunted him…how did he react? Predictably. Yet, why did a producer put this career in front of screaming fans.
