The praternity which is potential threat to the students.

What can you imagine that if you hear word, “fraternity”? The original fraternity is a group of people who share their certain interests and help each other. However, nowadays, it is changed; usually people have negative ideas of fraternity. Even someone thinks that fraternity is harmful to the students. If It is so what’s happening with fraternity in the school?

The one of AUF student said, “There are some fraternities in the AUF; before when you join fraternity, it is good but now, fraternity are a group of people who usually the gang that does bad.” And she added that some names of fraternities and mostly those which vandalized walls were written by them; even some teachers are members of fraternity.

Most serious problem in fraternity is that there is what people call "hazing" which old members of a fraternity torture the people who are trying to be a member of a fraternity. Another AUF old student said, basically, old fraternity was for good. When there was a new one though they also have hazing, it wasn't as severe as fraternity nowadays. For instance, let's say there is a new one. Since the old members of a fraternity need to test the new one whether they are gonna allow a new one to join the fraternity or not. In hazing, they tell the new one that they are gonna blindfold him or her and they tell the new one that he or she is gonna walk on the cracks of a glass. However, the old members of a fraternity will change the cracks of a glass into popcorns after they blindfold the new one. It is a matter of testing a new one's trust on the old members of a fraternity.

This was done before. But now, it is totally different. The old members of a fraternity REALLY hit and torture new ones because they are doing "hazing." Few people even die because of hazing. Another example for hazing is that we can see it occasionally near AUF. A group of guys run beneath the school with naked body. They cover their faces with some kind of a box or mask.

Also when they want to withdraw from fraternity, which is hard as hazing. The members of fraternity give force to the person who wants to withdraw. Thus they have hardships in the school. As a result, the person hesitates or gives up withdrawing from fraternity.

Therefore, to prevent negative effects of fraternity and protect their students, school needs to do something practical like educate them, what good fraternity is and what they should avoid. If school let them do something, soon serious problem will be appeared. Although we cannot face them usually, surely there are fraternities which give negative effects to the students; School must face them in the right way.
