Show Without sorrow there is no joy. Collegiate sorrow is three months of being a pledge, the lowest form of biologic existence. At specified times of the year it becomes a favorite indoor sport to originate new indignities and untried embarassments with which to baptize the trodden pledge. His discomfort is not permanent, though; before his tortures approach monotony he is made a member-hallowed word-and the endless cycle starts again, giving members an opportunity to express creative imagination and pledges a lesson in appreciation of how bad things can really get.
