Erle Morring

Personal. Honest. Life Changing.

Erle is earning rave reviews for his anti-hazing program, Hazed and Confused. Erle openly discusses the mistakes and bad choices he and his peers made, both as individuals
and as chapter and council leaders, with regard to harmful fraternity hazing traditions. The lineups, the visitations, the spotlight parties, the hotboxes, the yelling, the intimidation. In passionately recalling the hazing and the deaths of the two young men during his time at Auburn University, Erle draws
students into the experiences that forever changed his view of fraternity and the values of Greek Life.

Hazed and Confused

In a three month span, Erle Morring’s fraternity chapter lost two pledges.   

As a chapter and an IFC officer, Erle knew changes were needed.  The fraternity culture on his campus was so immersed in a hazing culture and so troubled by institutionalized alcohol abuse, he knew more deaths were imminent.

In describing the challenges he and his fraternity community faced, Erle offers hope and possibility to fraternity and sorority leaders facing an uphill battle in changing their negative histories and traditions.  

"It changed my way of thinking."

Hazed and Confused is a serious story, but Erle approaches his presentation with a laid-back, interactive, and practical style. He believes that the answers to hazing will be found in the hearts and efforts of progressive, forward-thinking student leaders who find the courage to ask questions, confront their peers, and set a new course. Members of your Greek community will leave with tools, ideas and motivation necessary to address hazing and substance abuse on their campus.

A perfect choice for hazing prevention programming, new member convocations, presidents’ retreats, and more.

I felt like this speaker was going to be just another boring hazing speaker that wouldn't be relevant to our campus. Not only was our speaker relevant, but he blew me away with his story and presentation. I couldn't believe that these things had actually happened and I saw how hazing had affected him personally. People joke about hazing, but the reality is so much scarier than the unfortunate truth at so many schools across the nation.

Erle Morring’s story and presentation was honest and helpful.  It put you in the passenger seat of the real life experiences and tragedies that we face as fraternity leadership consultants.  His honest and straight forward approach was captivating and I feel he drove the point home more than any speaker I’ve ever heard.  We need more speakers like him!  FANTASTIC!

His story is so personal and touching. He spoke with my fraternity men and really made a connection which is not an easy task. He was open for questions before, during and after the presentation and facilitated a forum in addition to his presentation.

Erle was very easy to work with and did an excellent job in connecting with the students...was not "preachy" but spoke from the heart. The students walked away with an appreciation of the topic and its impact upon their lives.
