Spring pledgeship offers a ton of advantages over that of Fall, none more than the week of Spring Break. Yet, not all fraternities let pledges ditch for a week. If you’re lucky enough to escape the haze-fest of pledgeship,  go gypsy style and give the middle-finger to high-priced hotels. Let HostelBookers be your #13 PCP for the week.

“If you could rape someone, who would it be?” If that’s not enough of an incentive to read this story, I don’t know what is. University of Vermont SigEp was suspended for an offensive survey. Shocker? Not really. Check out the article after the jump.

It’s sometimes best to let the media speak, even if their inspirational #29 anti-hazing douchebag commentary makes you sick. We can’t always be supportive of the brotherhood, now can we? Either way, take a quick read over a local newspaper’s definition of “6 Common Myths”. Cheers to high school hazing, let’s teach ‘em young!

Welcome. Around 2 years ago, a few fraternity brothers (a few drinks in) came up with the nit-witted idea to start a website. Broke as always, the stellar bunch somehow rounded up enough money to make it happen. 80+ articles and 100+ thousand unique visitors later, it’s time to break down all that the Pledging [...]

Not to be racist, but Florida A&M turns the minority into the majority. No matter where you’re from, multi-cultural fraternities take hazing to a whole new level. Yet, as previously discussed, fraternities aren’t the only ones professing the age-old art. In this case, a marching band takes things a little too far.

No matter how much of a badass you are, there will definitely come a point in pledgeship when you ask yourself… why the fuck am I doing this? Yet, not to worry, this doesn’t rival the trepid days of adolescent childhood when you ponder your sexuality. Don’t tell me the thought never crossed your mind…? Either way, your hardest [...]

As always, the Brotherhood keeps you in-the-know. The latest story comes out of the great state of Tennessee. Vanderbilt held its homecoming weekend last week, and as is tradition, the fraternities hosted alumni brothers for a late-night party. At SAE, they are still surveying the damage. It’s one thing to blow a $12K bar-tab, it’s [...]

Every once in a while the Brotherhood runs across a video worth sharing. In most cases, society’s taboo practices usually create a gold-mine of underground content. Yet, there isn’t too much evidence out there. You be the judge whether or not the video is real or staged. Either way, it’s a quality representation of the [...]

With the transition of high school to college comes the expectation of social survival. Your dorm room gets smaller and smaller by the day, all-the-while your social life dwindles. Once you’ve grown a sack and decided to #2 Rush, your alcoholic education begins. You’re not only joining a Brotherhood, you’re entering a semester long class of alcoholic consumption.

The life of a pledge is full of ups-and-downs: a rollercoaster, if you will. With orientation, pledge socials, hell week, and so much more, it’s tough to put your finger on the highest-highs or the lowest-lows. In the Fall, one day reigns supreme: Game Day. While everyone wishes they were in the SEC, football is [...]

When it comes to the Brotherhood, we’re all developing our inner-frat-star status with every day that goes by. Yet, unlike the typical #20 GDI, each and every frat star will be famous one day. In preparation for future celebrity status, the Brotherhood perfects their scribble-skills through the evolutionary concept of Signature Books. Yet, they’re way [...]

While #1 Animal House inspired colleges everywhere to achieve the most prestigious Greek-life possible, it also laid the framework for the shitty realities of life: #29 Anti-Hazing Douchebags. Society looks down upon fraternities just as America looks down upon Marijuana. When it comes to hazing, no fraternity can be legitimized unless it crosses paths with [...]

Society is extremely gracious in their acceptance of college as a tradition among youths. Yet, college will never settle. Hence, summer session. The greatest 4+ years of your life have not and will not be boxed into two semesters. When Spring comes to an end, you have one hell of a choice to make. Will [...]

It’s time to be superficial. When it comes to fraternity life, it’s all about the frat castle. If you’re not familiar with the term, #30 fratty vocabulary can help you out. Fraternity houses all over the country are the spectacles of their respective campuses… well, most of them. From modern masterpieces to southern mansions, fraternity [...]

The decision to join a fraternity rivals one of marriage. The options of women, and that of fraternities, are endless. Yet, in the end, only one reigns supreme. The downside? The money, of course. Do I really need to explain what a wife does to your checkbook? You get the point. When it comes to [...]

Ever wonder how the brotherhood stays connected? Just as some of the most simple aspects of every-day life are transformed into greatness through fraternities, even the most basic form of communication is taken to the next level in the brotherhood. With modern technology on the rise, most-notably crack-berries and i-phones, brothers are constantly in touch with one another. In [...]

If you’re somewhat new to the fraternal way of life, there’s nothing more confusing than the Greek alphabet. Strewn across every fraternity and sorority house on campus, along with every other sweatshirt, jacket and rearview car window, Greek letters have and will always remain a fraternity and sorority commonplace. While it doesn’t take a genius [...]

Let’s be honest. In the eye’s of society, frat-guys aren’t the cream of the crop. Hell, if anything, they’re a menace to society. The older generations just don’t understand where we’re coming from. College represents four years to let-loose. It doesn’t mean we’ll be pulling keg-stands and hazing pledges ten years down the line… right? [...]

The Pledge Master serves as the single most important component of fraternal pledgeship. All pledge programs incorporate an exclusive brother who leads each pledge class through their semester-long pledgeship, and eventually into the brotherhood. The ironies and intricacies of the position are truly creative. WARNING: This post is the first of it’s kind. We’re not [...]

While every college and university across the country cuts down on the hazing, the media drools over the countless hazing practices that go on in professional sports. By no means are they harking upon it. Hell no, it’s just a joke to society. Why then can’t universities have the same attitude towards fraternal hazing? #6 [...]

It’s a sad realization that universities all across the country are cutting down on the sacred tradition that we call hazing. They don’t appreciate the intricacies of the ritual, nor truly understand #41 why we haze. The unfortunate result of society’s trend is a solid kick in the nuts. Fraternities everywhere are being kicked off [...]

Each pledge is given a slight glimmer of hope throughout their semester of hell. While a pledge and his pledge class will become unified in their position against the brotherhood, a small group of brothers will serve as allies for the youngsters. A big brother is a much-needed ally for each pledge. Within the first [...]

The entire pledging process involves a handful of nuances and rules that are merely made to be a major pain in the ass. From designated driving to serving dinner, the process as a whole incorporates both brotherhood necessity and brotherhood enjoyment. Believe it or not, pledges are used to positively enhance society. To separate those [...]

It’s truly difficult to not give Charlie credit. Well, it’s the Brotherhood’s turn. Pledging Sucks is about fraternities, hazing, pledgeship and the sort. Where does Charlie fit in? Fucking everywhere. He embodies all that we preach, and never stops winning. Let’s take a look at some of his memorable quotes. Give him credit, he deserves [...]

Ever wonder where the brotherhood originates? I lose sleep over this exact question every night. With every new year comes a brand new batch of collegiate freshman. Fresh out of high school, a new line of guys enter the system to one day take the place of those today. Although pledgeship perfects those who are [...]

The transition period between Pledge and Brother creates an eloquent awkwardness. It’s truly difficult to explain. For months, a pledge rivals his position as the scum of the earth. The Brotherhood makes life miserable. It’s inevitable that each and every pledge should hold a grudge upon the very brothers they’re fighting so hard to join. [...]

Hazing? Never heard of it. Who hazes? Well, for those who believe in the ludicrous myth that fraternities and sororities carry on the age-old tradition of hazing, here’s your glorified top-10 list. Make that 14. With the help of Ranker.com, we’ve compiled the top-14 most brutal college hazing rituals. Take it with a grain of [...]

It’s one thing to read about it, it’s a completely different thing to see it. We searched the web for the classiest hazing pics out there. While the Brotherhood represents the great majority of hazing in society, you have to respect the Sisterhood in their leaked pics. Their downfall? Every damn girl loves their camera, [...]

Due to a few recent incidents of hazing that have hit national spotlight, we’re going to run a weekly article revolving around hazing and pledgeship in the news. Because of our creativity, we’re titling it In The News. Innovative, I know. Well, our first edition travels to bum-fuck-nowhere in the small college town of Middlebury, [...]

Society consists of an overwhelming amount of anti-hazing douche-bags. Wherever the pre-conceived notions came from, it’s pretty fucking obvious that the haters of hazing can be sourced back to GDI college life. Only those who have experienced all that pledgeship and brotherhood entails can truly comprehend the value and importance of hazing. We’re not talking [...]

Making the transition from high school hot-shot to university frat-star isn’t one of ease. For all you cocky shitheads who think that high school stardom matters, you’re so fucking wrong it’s not even funny. The Brotherhood salivates for pledges like you. There are two sides to the anticipation story. If you’re a freshman about to [...]

Let’s face it, unless you’re currently in a fraternity, you don’t know shit about one. Seriously, Greek life has and always will remain private and exclusive. And fuck, we like it that way. Well, for all you naive youngsters chomping at the bits to join the greatest unified group of bros in the world, we’re [...]

Frat stars don’t make resolutions. Why not? Because frat stars live the life of their dreams, and they don’t need to make a bullshit promise to improve what’s already the best. Cocky? Abso-fucking-lutely. The New Year doesn’t represent shit for a bro, only the fact that his liver survived another year of binge drinking, his [...]

Pledgeship remains shitty for many reasons, but one more than any other: the Brotherhood uses their pawns for all they’re worth. Pawns…pledges…same thing. In other words, pledges aren’t pointlessly hazed (well, most of the time). We’re not talking about making a pledge wipe a brother’s ass after he shits. Although that might be productive and [...]

YouTube offers some of the greatest, and some of the worst home videos you’ll ever see. Surprisingly, there is very little video content revolving around pledgeship. I’m not counting the endless bullshit “anti-hazing” news reports. Fucking bro haters. But hey, we don’t worry about those, now do we? How about a fraternity hazing skit that [...]

With countless hazing horror stories plaguing all that is Greek life, some tend to forget how kick-ass a semester of pledgeship can be. Ask anyone who has endured it; it’s worth every second. With the New Year right around the corner, let’s not forget to count our blessings. For all the newly initiated pledges, welcome [...]

There’s something oddly appealing about celebrities, whether it be a juicy background story, illicit sex scandal or latest purchase in Beverly Hills. Let’s take a slightly more badass look at our most beloved celebs. Ever wonder if the icons of today knew how to funnel a beer, haze a pledge or sport the greatest Greek [...]

It’s not everyday that we learn a new word or two. I’d be willing to throw down a few bucks to bet you’ve never heard of some of these. Quite possibly the greatest list of vocabulary words I’ve run across. Specializing in fraternities and sororities, these slang words perfectly encompass all that is Greek Life. [...]

Also known as GDI’s, Anti-Hazing Douchebags are all those opposed to the sacred ritual of hazing a pledge’s balls off. Who would ever disagree with such time-honored tradition? But hey, we can always embark upon ropes courses, trust falls and pledge class dinners to build unity, right? Fuck no, that’s not an option. All those [...]

Public opinion can truly blow your mind a time or two, and nothing’s better than an online dictionary that defines the greatest terms known to man. Of course Greek-life will make its presence known, and of course these responses are the classiest out there. From fratastic to sorostitute, let’s take a look at how Urban [...]

So you’ve heard it all. Pledgeship encompasses every type of fired-up freshman known to man. We could talk all day long, but we want to know about you…

For all you naive folk out there, pledges aren’t the only ones getting their shit rocked. Think about it, pledgeship only lasts for a few months. What the hell is the brotherhood supposed to do without pledges to haze? It’s like having a girlfriend to screw on a daily basis, then breaking up. It’s not [...]

If you really wanna fire-up the brotherhood, shotgun a beer. But we’re not talking about your average Saturday night rager. If your dreams of frat-star status are truly worthy, you’ll get fucked up on a daily basis. As a pledge, there’s no better way to earn respect. Well, assuming you’re pledging the right fraternity. Let’s [...]

Ever wonder what your favorite big-screen badasses, superstar athletes, and mega-rich media moguls were like in college? Only the best knew how to party, and if they did just that, you better believe they joined a frat. Will Ferrell over there, he was a classy Delta Tau Delta. Let’s all raise our glasses to the best [...]

Fraternities will continue to be a social tradition as long as society involves adolescents, alcohol, sex & drugs. Sorry for partying. And maybe a few networking opportunities for those who don’t party. We don’t like to talk about them. Anyways, there are always the cases of pledgeship that go haywire. Serious shit can happen, and [...]

The concept of televising fraternity life seems like the ideal form of entertainment. Constant parties, horny sorority girls and pledge hazing would make for quality television, especially on MTV. Well, history proves otherwise (much to my dismay). To prove just how badly pledging sucks, lets take a trip back to February 2003, the original air [...]

As brothers, we’d all love to have Hooters girls driving us around, serving us dinner and getting hardcore hazed. And in this case, sexually hazed. Well, we can’t all win the lottery now can we? Society has been pretty generous to keep fraternities and pledgeship around for the time being, so we won’t be too [...]

For every hero, there lies a villain. For every frat-star, there lies a GDI. Let’s delve into a vocabulary lesson. GDI: God Damn Independent. For those in college who choose to live a life of solitary confinement, a meager contact list and ice cream socials, this lifestyle is for you. They forgo the opportunity of [...]

Hazing? Never heard of it. Fraternities these days shower their pledges with presents and dandelions. It’s very cute to say the least. But hey, don’t take my word for it. Wikipedia tells all: hazing is a term used to describe various rituals and other activities involving harassment, abuse or humiliation as a way of initiating [...]

Well fuck, isn’t this an entire website devoted to the revelation of pledgeship secrets? You bet your ass it is. So what about secrecy? I’ll shove it up the brotherhood’s ass, that’s what I’ll do. Look, the importance of secrecy remains immense in any brotherhood that hazes their pledges’ balls off. Just ask Tiger. A [...]
