Has anyone heard rumors of attempts to censor Bonfire and Bonfire-related information on campus?

It was censored in the 2000s. TAMU has gotten lax in recent years.

They designated axe handles as hazing paraphernalia that lead to immediate disciplinary action, and a lot of the RAs in the active dorms are instructed to push the fish away from Bonfire as much as possible. Krueger had really sh*tty numbers when I was a fish for this reason. Other than that, there's only so much they can actually do. People still go to Sbisa in grodes, the nerds bring their pots to the games, etc.

I haven't heard if anything recently. I talked to some guys from squadrons 17 & 18 who told me the commandante (or however you spell that) threatened to issue demerits for participation (which he can't do because it's an off campus activity). Contact some bonfire people on Facebook, I know the 2016 OC chiefs have allot of knowledge on that topic, and Dion is always a good guy to ask also.

They did this when I was on campus 05-09 but it didn't stop us. We just kept the handles hidden and our axe box off campus. Hart Hall was pretty lax about it though. We had a good relationship with the GHD and RAs. Helps that the GHD was a BQ from back in the 80s.
