Obviously my heart is broken for the parents of this 19 year old reading the details of his falls and eventual death trying to pledge. I do believe that the other students should have called for help after his first fall and ofcourse shouldnt have forced them to drink so much. Not to blame the victim but I wonder why people dont just say no to these hazing rituals. I try to think back to when I was in college and I know I simply said no to things that didnt make sense to me, although I did make some dumb decisions now and then. I would hope that when my kids go to college they have the courage to say no and walk away from extreme situations.
