NATIONAL STUDY ON HAZING/PLEDGING/MIP: PLEASE PARTICIPATE Monday, December 20, 2010 12:15 PM

For more than a year now, my colleagues and I have been conducting dozens of empirical studies on Black Greek-letter organizations. One study, the largest of them all, is the study on hazing/pledging/MIP (Membership Intake Process). My close friend from graduate school and colleague -- Dr. Shayne Jones -- is heading up this project. Among other things, the findings from this study should help us better ascertain why hazing persists within BGLOs, what types of members remain active within BGLOs, how brotherhood/sisterhood is cultivated within BGLOs, what BGLO members desire in a "process," etc. All participation is confidential; the study takes about an hour and is quite probing. The full details of the study and the link to the study are at:

Please participate, and pass this message along to any and every BGLO member you know.

Brotherly,

Gre
