Come on, people. At Syracuse University, a fraternity has been suspended and two students were arrested and charged in connection with a hazing incident that almost cost a pledge several fingers to severe frostbite.
Syracuse University suspends fraternity over hazing incident
19-year-old Tae Kim and 21-year-old Jeffrey Yam of Nu Alpha Phi, an Asian American-interest fraternity, were charged with misdemeanor first-degree hazing after forcing three pledges to do push-ups, crawl and roll around in the snow without gloves. The exercise was apparently a "punishment" for failure to perform pledge duties.
One of the pledges, a 20-year-old student, suffered severe frostbite and was in danger of losing four fingers -- two fingers on both hands. Thankfully, it now looks like his fingers are going to be okay.
