Get StartedI'm not sure "strict like Wheaton" has anything to do with it. This is wrong everywhere. I'm curious this was over a year ago and just reported now?
I read that he originally went to Toledo but transferred after one year. The article said he was a "devout Christian"

Maybe we should move this to the Christians behaving badly thread.

Just because you say you're Christian doesn't mean you are..
claim is not just a Christian in this case, DEVOUT Christian.
Hazing is a college ritual which has led to causing freshmen sports-sorority/fraternity pledges to perform or permit some extremely dangerous and demeaning things, and in the most severe cases, has led to second-degree murder, manslaughter, suicide, sickness, overdoses, alcohol poisoning, rape, and/or disfigurement. Especially in the oldest former same-sex universities, and Ivy League colleges where hazing is probably more prevalent. The lingering emotional effects can last loong past the time spent in school, and probable lifetimes, like the legendary "skull and crossbones" fraternity/society, that probably was/is not unlike becoming a made man in La Cosa Nostra.
Several years ago, I seem to recall reading an article where a UM fraternity destroyed a northern MI hunting/skiing lodge (or similar), but don't remember what, if anything, was done about catching/punishing the perps.
the ski lodge thing was extensively covered in the freep and Detroit News. I think the houses involved got booted off campus. IIRC, the lodge was trying to bring criminal charges, but the kids who did the worst of it refused to come forward and the rest of them wouldn't rat out their bros.
UM actually had a pretty low tolerance for fraternity hijinks when I was there, and I assume it's only gotten lower since then.
