Parents of University of Missouri student sue fraternity over hazing

The parents of a Minnesota man allege in a lawsuit that he has been unresponsive and requires constant medical care since being forced to drink a bottle of vodka at a fraternity at the University of Missouri.

Daniel Santulli, 19, of Eden Prairie, Minnesota, was found in cardiac arrest inside a car at University Hospital on Oct. 20, according to the lawsuit. His blood alcohol content was 0.0486%, more than six times the legal limit for driving, the Columbia Missourian reported.

The lawsuit contends Santulli and the rest of his pledge class at Phi Gamma Delta were each forced to drink a bottle of hard liquor, given to them by their “pledge fathers.”

Santulli remains “unresponsive, unaware of his surroundings, unable to communicate and (with) a significant injury to his brain,” according to the lawsuit.

Permanently over shat like this. Go after the so called leaders if that chapter as well.
I’m sure there are good experiences for some pledges, but it only takes something like this to open eyes.

Remember this, frats & sororities are actually minorities in campuses. Plus, once in you work for free for that privilege in the form of dues.

Myself?
My friends and I belonged to GDIS
