Dog-Eating Stirs Frat World
By MARSHALL RICE
‘ From the other three corners of
the nation, we have received bad
reports about the fraternity system
in colleges. It seems that frater
nities have hazing troubles, too.
Sparks of public indignation were
set off by an incident at UCLA in
which it was charged that a fra
ternity pledge was forced to kill
a dog. That isn’t all. The pledge
not only had ! to kill the poor dog,
he was forced to skin the animal,
dress it, and then eat part of the
carcass raw, ji
As a result of this incident and
similar ores, drastic measures have
been taken. Interfraternity coun
cils at colleges and universities
throughout the country have draf
ted resolutionsito atop cannibalism
and other such practices;
At LSU, the Men’s Interfrater-
nity Council passed an amendment
to its constitution which says: “It
shall be unlawful for any member
of any fraternity. to engage in
what is known as hazing,” This
amendment included seven penal
ties against the ‘Childish pranks”
that are compulsory to gain ad
mission into one of these organiza
tions.! I
The Ifniveraity of Michigan’s IF-
C outlawed] hazing on its campus,
also. Their resolution requires that
pledgeship.’
is to conduct pledge training and
initiation in such a way as to pro
mote behavior consistent with good
morals and good taste.

hi
ing ! fraternity, the
:
Beta Theta Pi chapter at UCLA
had little to say about this occur
rence which aroused nationwide
wrath. The case was dismissed
from court for lack of, sufficient
evidence and the whole thing denied
by the members of the Beta Theta
Pi.
Perhaps it is well that this inci
dent took place because of the res
olutions arising from it i If more
interfraternity councils formulate
similar rules, and the fraternity
members are made to live up to
these rules, the standing of the
fraternity system should take an
upward swing.
I, We hope such a carnivorous cus
tom never becomes vogue at A&M.
It could easily spread like a prairie
fire in Kansas. We have so many
dogs!
