Alcohol and the Chosen Few: Organizational Reproduction in an Addictive System
by James C. Arnold
This book is an interpretive case study, examining the use of alcohol by a college fraternity. Based on nearly three years of investigation using interviews, observation, and document analysis, this work offers a detailed look at the fraternity's socialization (pledgeship) process. An "addictive organization" framework is used to explain the group dynamic, specifically with respect to alcohol and hazing.
   
This book, written for youth 13 to 17, contains hard-hitting passages on athletic and fraternal hazing in high schools. It also offers a devastating portrait of the death of Nick Haben in a lacrosse club initiation at Western Illinois University. Contains information on dozens of high school hazing incidents.

Wrongs of Passage (Fraternities, Sororities: Hazing and Binge Drinking) concentrates on hazing/alcohol misuse in Greek groups, with an eye toward changing behavior and noting actions of fraternal organizations to introduce true reforms. It also notes attempts by schools  to find positive ways to combat hazing after hazing- or alcohol-related pledge deaths have occurred. However, Wrongs of Passage demonstrates that hazing has been a disturbing part of higher education since the Middle Ages. It concludes with strategies toward curtailing fraternal alcohol misuse and hazing and with a comprehensive, factual index of Greek deaths from hazing, alcohol misuse and other causes (including accidents) since the nineteenth century.
