No, there should be criminal charges filed against those involved in this boy's death, as well as against those adults in charge of this fraternity.

What's with the 'no,' as though your statement is in disagreement with me. Of course there should be charges (at least manslaughter).

Texas criminalized certain kinds of hazing (all kinds involving alcohol), and, voila, we've had none of these deaths in the last two years.

So I guess there's no need to ban fraternities.

BTW, the 'hazing' in my fraternity's hell week consisted of thoroughly cleaning, rehabilitating and painting the common areas of the fraternity house, including carpet steaming and light finish carpentry. We drank, but no one forced anyone to drink anything. Most fraternities I know are like that.

What? Mine was not like that at all. It was ten weeks of hell.

At the end, let's just say that your feet literally burned as you crossed "the burning sands."
