The initiation process isn't uniform. The big problem with the initiation process is you have 19, 20, 21 year olds who get a god complex, lack maturity, and have a fair amount of free reign in straight out abuse.
It becomes 'Lord of the Flies' in some chapters. Ours was fairly bad but sadly the HBCUs are the worst. Also, regionally, the south is the worst even at PWIs (predominantly white institutions).
Also, you have people, at the same age who want the clout. I did. It's a fact pretty much all do who try to join. A very few are legacies and their fathers or members of the family is in that frat or sorority and its a family tradition.
My sadness is, as I stated earlier, the lack of reaching the full potential of the D9. As far as I know, none of the BLM/Floyd protests had any of the D9 out there representing as a group in support. Same with the NAACP, Urban League, all the groups. But in some sense because it was completely grassroots, it was better because the aforementioned are all compromised.
