PledgingSucks.com - Fraternity Life 101

We'll take a page out of the Brotherhoods' favorite piece of art, Animal House: Otter: Flounder, I am appointing you pledge representative to the social committee. Flounder: Gee Otter, thanks. What do I have to do? Otter: It means you…

When the semester began, an anonymous reader shot me an email with a few questions and comments revolving around pledgeship. His fear of the unknown was typical, and by the looks of it, he seems to be doing fine. We asked the brave soul to…

Fraternities in a nutshell encompass all that hazing and partying have to offer. It's the cold hard facts, and the mountains are as blue as they get. There are numerous forms and fashions, with countless different objectives, dilemmas and…

Back to the headlines, the latest hazing story In The News comes from the University of Maryland. Maybe I'm just naive, but isn't the bulk load of hazing supposed to come from fraternities? I don't know whether to love or hate this. Long…

The transition period between Pledge and Brother creates an eloquent awkwardness. It’s truly difficult to explain. For months, a pledge rivals his position as the scum of the earth. The Brotherhood makes life miserable. It’s inevitable that…

"Pledgeship parallels a glorified ROTC. The yelling, physicality and mental torture seem all too similar. Such hardship forces unity, and makes you respect your letters when all is said and done."

Spring pledgeship offers a ton of advantages over that of Fall, none more than the week of Spring Break. Yet, not all fraternities let pledges ditch for a week. If you're lucky enough to escape the haze-fest of pledgeship,  go gypsy style…

Hazing? Never heard of it. Who hazes? Well, for those who believe in the ludicrous myth that fraternities and sororities carry on the age-old tradition of hazing, here's your glorified top-10 list. Make that 14. With the help of Ranker.com,…

Due to a few recent incidents of hazing that have hit national spotlight, we're going to run a weekly article revolving around hazing and pledgeship in the news. Because of our creativity, we're titling it In The News. Innovative, I know.…

As promised, the Brotherhood will be heard. An anonymous submission just came our way in classy bullet-point form. Like all submissions requesting to be kept under wraps, we'll honor the wish. Not to worry, there's no name needed. This…

"Some college overachievers garner their degree in the typical fields of real-world bullshit. Yet, only the best graduate with an Honors Degree in Fratting. Others might call it Fraternal Education, with minors in Keg Stands, Sex Education…

Society consists of an overwhelming amount of anti-hazing douche-bags. Wherever the pre-conceived notions came from, it’s pretty fucking obvious that the haters of hazing can be sourced back to GDI college life. Only those who have…

With pledgeship already a few weeks in the books, it's time to discuss the elephant in the room. The process of pledging is one of gradual pain. Hazing begins on a small level, and works its way up. The brotherhood needs to filter out the…

"If you could rape someone, who would it be?" If that's not enough of an incentive to read this story, I don't know what is. University of Vermont SigEp was suspended for an offensive survey. Shocker? Not really. Check out the article after…

True frat-stars don't think twice about this one. When a chick asks if you want to stick it in her ass, do you hesitate? No, you jump in that shit (literally). Too much? Anyways, you get the point. If the opportunity presents itself to fuck…

Making the transition from high school hot-shot to university frat-star isn't one of ease. For all you cocky shitheads who think that high school stardom matters, you're so fucking wrong it's not even funny. The Brotherhood salivates for…

"Don't let Rush fool you. The Brotherhood puts on a glorious front, all for the sake of recruitment. All the beer, liquor and women in the world will be thrown your way. But alas, the Brotherhood might be nice now, but in due time, you'll…

Let’s face it, unless you’re currently in a fraternity, you don’t know shit about one. Seriously, Greek life has and always will remain private and exclusive. And fuck, we like it that way. Well, for all you naive youngsters chomping at the…

It's sometimes best to let the media speak, even if their inspirational #29 anti-hazing douchebag commentary makes you sick. We can't always be supportive of the brotherhood, now can we? Either way, take a quick read over a local…

Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes? Here's your backstage access to what fraternities do to prepare for #2 Rush. While most outsiders consider a group of fraternity guys to be lackluster in their preparation skills, the truth is…

Frat stars don’t make resolutions. Why not? Because frat stars live the life of their dreams, and they don’t need to make a bullshit promise to improve what’s already the best. Cocky? Abso-fucking-lutely. The New Year doesn’t represent shit…

Pledgeship remains shitty for many reasons, but one more than any other: the Brotherhood uses their pawns for all they’re worth. Pawns...pledges...same thing. In other words, pledges aren’t pointlessly hazed (well, most of the time). We’re…

Fraternities will continue to be a social tradition as long as society involves adolescents, alcohol, sex & drugs. Sorry for partying. And maybe a few networking opportunities for those who don’t party. We don’t like to talk about them.…

As promised, the Brotherhood will be heard. A recent submission came our way from J-Mulde, an anonymous GDI from an unknown college. Sound fishy? Here's what he has to say about his desires to pledge: "I'm a GDI, unfortunately, but very…

Welcome. Around 2 years ago, a few fraternity brothers (a few drinks in) came up with the nit-witted idea to start a website. Broke as always, the stellar bunch somehow rounded up enough money to make it happen. 80+ articles and 100+…
