Question: Pick one concept from the assigned reading that you found useful or interesting and discuss it.
After reading chapter 14, I have been moved to really take on a more passionate role towards my persuasive speech. After interviewing my father in his hazing experience in his pledging process while trying to become a member of a fraternity, I have really thought about using hard evidence (from the reading) to use in my speech. My father was referring to me about how there weren’t any hazing laws in the time when he was pledging a fraternity, this made me realize that I should tie in the hazing laws that are in every different state or universally throughout the nation. I feel if individuals are just educated then they can feel or get steered into my opinion about hazing.

Hi Jayme! I'm really excited about hearing your speech. It's great that you've talked to someone who's experienced your topic first hand. I actually remember a few years ago how this college was on the news for hazing. It was awful to watch. I think it was a sorority and the members were spraying the pledges with a hose. But the pressure of the water was really hard. Isn't it illegal for fraternity/sorority to haze these days? Anyways, good luck on your speech. See you next class meeting. Good Luck!
