This won't have any effect on Texas SAE obviously, they'll just haze their "new members"

May not have any effect here...but this is a national policy.

We are not talking about some new member development plan or some new anti-hazing policy.

This is the complete end of pledgship as we know it with in SAE....ever chapter everywhere.

SAE will never be the same nationally.

really hard to call them new members to national's face, and then haze them once they're not looking.

It'll hurt new chapters for sure, but current chapters will just do what they always do and call it something else.

It all depends on how SAE nationals enforces this rule. If they go down hard and are serious about this, it could turn them into the next KAs or SigEp. (SigEp installed a similar policy in the 90s and now has even made its mark on downgrading SigEps best chapters). If little enforcement is done, just like how none of our nationals allows hazing this would be a non-issue for them. My guess it will lean on the lack of enforcement side. This is just a publicity stunt to keep SAE from further legal action. The rule would give greater protection to nationals for hazing and death lawsuits, and ultimately put more of the responsibility on the schools and chapter members. (As far as I know most fraternity chapters are legally part of the school that chartered them and not a separate entity that can be taken to court.

realize nationals have done this before. ZBT banned pledgeship a while ago, not many chapters here haze harder than Texas ZBT.

It's more of a political move. It'll affect new chapters and colonies coming, but it won't affect current ones much. It especially won't affect Texas SAE, they're easily one of their three best chapters nationally.

Nationals won't touch 'em unless they kill another kid.

They shut down Mu at Alabama a few years ago. I agree Texas Rho is a great chapter but if they will shut down Alabama they will do it to anyone.

they didn't shut down texas rho when that drunk pledge fell off the balcony a few years ago. they just slapped them on the wrists and the hazing just went further underground even as nationals were all up their asses. nothing will change for the big important chapters.

But SAE nationals seems serious about it this time.

If they will kick off Mother Mu....they will kick off any chapter.

And with a large chapter and the internet its more mouths people have to keep shut.

lost a lot of respect for SAE from this backlash. The fact that you started pointed fingers and lashing out is below you.

This is hilarious. I'm a girl and I know this won't affect Texas SAE at all. You try hard fraternities are the ones looking really bad here. SAE will always be better than you.

pretending to be girls now? SAE will stay on top with their house and history as long as they don't get kicked off by their nationals for breaking the rules, but they are pretty much losing their remaining competitive edge. Fiji will be dominant and Sig Ep and Kappa Sig will be threatening, especially if SAE's nationals actually enforce it.
