Check out how tight the groups are that go through a hazing process, be it physical or mental, and compare it to a group that experiences no hazing whatsoever. The hazing brings the group closer together and bonds them through a difficult and shared process and common pain.
Don't worry too much about it. Most of the time it's a big mindfuck. Just don't do anything too stupid, like drinking waaaaay past your limit, and you should be fine.
Ah, good times. Memories of Pepsi, Preparation H analgesics, and a call to the poison control line.

Firstly, it is unfortunate, but I can't 'check out' any Frat groups since I live in Australia and we don't have them.
Moreover, do you mean to tell me that somehow, hazing brings people 'closer together' through shared pain. I mean seriously, it's a frathouse man, they're not in the Nam, they don't need to save each other's lives. Sounds to me like they take themselves WAY to seriously if they think it's necessary to administer Preparation H in order to form a relationship...
Perhaps a better way would be to do away with the cloistered frat society where the levels of testosterone apparently kill brain cells at an alarming rate and simply just become friends the regular way...
