With 123 organizations and more than 9 million total members, Greek Letter Organizations is the largest network of people in the nation. This network includes most of America's presidents and vice presidents, 76% of the members of Congress and senators, and "40 of the 47 [members] of the justices of the United States Supreme Court since 1910." On many of your campuses the student leaders are normally made up of Greek members, who also hold many leadership positions in their organization. Men and women who wear the Greek letters complete the greatest number of hours of service, more than 10 million, each year in the world. Despite some of these surprising facts, many here are reflecting on the importance of Greek life on their campus or have already kicked the Greek system off their campus. Why does this seem like the coming norm? Why do many people seem to express a negative opinion about a candidate who was president of their organization? This is due to the sharp increase in hazing cases reported on college campuses across the United States. Hazing has slowly become a serious part of universities and is normally connected to Greek life organizations. It is time for university staff to unite and take a stand together against hazing because it is now a national issue and is endangering many of our students. The main reason why hazing is becoming so widespread is due to the fact that there are different levels of hazing from college to college, so many personnel are educated that certain acts are acceptable to perform and accept it on the campus where they work. Another aspect that needs to be addressed is schools not being proactive in stopping hazing. Many wait until a student is seriously injured to address concerns that may arise.
