How bad is pledging at frats here?
by: RusheeThinking of rushing, but don’t want to go through an intense pledgeship. I don’t want frat stuff to get in the way of my academics, do the top frats here have intense pledgeships? What does pledgeship usually entail? Thanks

This. Most of us who rushed mid tier houses weren’t cut from upper tier. We just didn’t even bother because the hazing isn’t worth it

No chance. The first two days of rush the top and upper house smokers are completely packed. Then after first and second contacts there’s maybe 30% of the original mass showing up and the mid house smokers become packed. Pretty much everyone at least tries a little to get into the upper houses, don’t kid yourself.

You’d swear every rush at least takes a stroll through Sig Chi and DU during rush

Varies by house, but UpperMid and Top Frats generally have horrendous pledging (enough for kids to drop out). We all know about the PhiPsi tragedy.
If you are concerned about hazing, I’d check out the Mid-Tier houses (Pike, PiKapp, PhiTau) because they’re significantly less severe.

Two kids at tragically passed away at Cornell in the last years (Google the SAE and PhiPsi incidents).
My older brother went to Cornell too, and supposedly it was common for top frats to lock away pledges in basements/cellars for the weekend; strip them down to their underwear, blindfold them, and feed them nasty stuff; and also just force them to drink until they atleast puked.
Overall, things have somewhat toned down now- but still pretty horrendous and grueling. But lots of kids make it through to join upper/top houses. If you don’t want that, then rush upper-mid and mid houses.

Antonio didn’t pass away cuz of pledging... it was a rush event during first semester
