He continued, &#8220;And I heard their only hazing is to dunk you under water a couple of times. Do they even drink here?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Hesler&#8217;s friend, Phil Thomas, who attended the event with him also seemed to believe that Chi-Alpha was a fraternity stating, &#8220;We spent most of the time holding hands, and I understand the need for brotherhood, but I just felt a bit uncomfortable, couldn&#8217;t we just have held each others\u2019 dicks or something?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Flipside also spoke with Chi Alpha member Jon Babbist, who was the leader of their study group. &#8220;Jim and Phil both seemed really nice, I was excited to share the word of Christ with them; they seemed a little confused though. After communion they seemed disappointed, and they came up to me suggesting we play slap the bag with the communion grape juice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When prompted on whether he would go back Hesler said, &#8220;I just really wanted to meet the frat president, Jay Zuess. They kept telling crazy stories about him. Apparently, when he goes to a party there&#8217;s enough wine to last for days. Everybody said he&#8217;d be back in 3 days, but I haven&#8217;t met him yet and I&#8217;m starting to wonder whether he actually exists.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Jake Spear BLOOMINGTON, IN &#8212; Following his first meeting Chi Alpha meeting, Freshman Jim Hesler spoke with Flipside reporters expressing his surprise at Greek life on IU campus. &#8220;Going [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1084,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","jetpack_publicize_message":""},"categories":[299],"tags":[368,241,312,367,100],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/hoosierflipside.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/chi_alpha_sad_frat_guy.png?fit=1040%2C720&ssl=1","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7b5Hd-ht","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1083"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1083"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1083\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1088,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1083\/revisions\/1088"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1084"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1083"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1083"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hoosierflipside.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1083"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
