Ay dios mio! Yet another hazing incident strikes the scene at Michigan. This time, it’s personal… to Mexicans. A man in a large sombrero with a trash can in his hands was standing outside Panchero’s on South U using a fake accent to ask for “money por de children de Mexico”. When confronted about being offensive, he broke the cardinal rule of pledging; he told them he was doing it for his fraternity. However, when asked which one, he told them he was pledging for Phi Kappa Psi. They had a date party that evening and denied any involvement or knowledge of the incident. Looks like the kid managed to dust a few tracks off his path, but this investigation isn’t over.

IFC President Jared Averbuch (Pike) claims that this may be a case in which someone says they’re part of a fraternity but, in reality, are not. Non-Greeks naturally enjoy drunkenly dressing up and shamefully degrading themselves in public just as much as the rest of us.

It seems last week’s hazing prevention week was Great Success! However, if this kid does get traced back to one of the fraternities on campus, they’ll likely be joining Beta. Single-handed responsibility for bringing down a fraternity probably isn’t the best way to get your college career started. You may have to go the way of esteemed UM Alum Ted Kaczynski and find a shack out in Montana to lay low for a few years.
