This picture would be very helpful in showing how hardcore the hazing is not only in fraternities but sororities. From the picture it can be seen , a sorority pledge is wrapped up in duck tape all naked in the woods and probably got bullied and harrassed verbally and physically. It matches my thesis as whoever who sees this picture would say : why do pledges agree to being hazed if it entails this and also whats the value in it and what do greek lettered society get out of this?
This picture portrays the very known and popular hazing ritual of making the pledges drink, especially in fraternities. In my research paper i have provided stories of pledges who died because of extensive drinking and hence this picture is significant as it backs it up.
also the videos
1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rs4Z6ekVlJ4: this video portrays a news story of pledging caught on tape and brutal beating of the pledges is going on in the fraternities.
2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJdHpnvmZTw : its a documentary on how a innocent pledge was killed and interview of his mom and sister is also given. In addition it is a very influential documentary and gives out a very important message revealing the dangers of hazing
Some powerful images. Very good. (It's "duct tape" by the way -- not "duck" tape, though many people make that joke.)
