Tulane's Version Of Branding With a Hot Fork

Tulane's Version Of Branding With a Hot Fork
Tulane University has suspended the Pi Kappa Alpha chapter, a spokesman says.  Picture via CNN Two pledges were treated at a hospital for severe burns resulting from the April 25 incident at the Pi Kappa Alpha house. Ten fraternity members at Tulane University face criminal charges in an alleged hazing incident in which pledges were repeatedly burned with hot water, cayenne pepper and vinegar. All 10 students face charges of aggravated second-degree battery.
Remember those Hofstra girls who tried to brand a sorority pledge in the groin with a hot fork? Ten Tulane frat idiots might be going to jail for a similar stunt.
The Tulane University chapter of Pi Kappa Alpha was suspended yesterday after several pledges came forward about the fraternity’s alleged hazing practices. 

According to the pledges, members of the frat doused them with hot water and pepper spray during a night lovingly known as the “hell night” initiation.

Two of the pledges suffered from second- and third- degree burns and had to be hospitalized. One of them, whose name was not released, is currently undergoing treatment to recover from his burns. According to his lawyer, the pain from his burns has kept him from attending classes.

Ten members of Pi Kappa Alpha have been arrested for the hazing and now face felony battery charges, which carries up to a 15-year prison sentence if convicted. Good luck to them, because I think being burned would be the least of their worries in prison. Don’t drop the soap, guys.

Don’t frats ever learn from each other

If you haze, you’re going to get caught. Give up your egomaniacal power trip and find some other way to test a pledge’s loyalty.
