With community, leadership, and service as the cornerstones of his fraternity, Butch, the Dean of Pledges, tests one of the most distinguishing elements of a man for others: strength of character. Does "pharaoh willis jones" possess the moral fiber RA is
looking for? Will he sacrifice his principles for the sake of unity or stand his ground alone?
How does one maintain personal integrity amidst the pressure of unified thinking gone astray? The pharaohs take you on a journey through one of their most challenging nights on line. Will they rise and pledge to be the men they say they are? Individuals vs. the group, right vs. wrong, Morality vs. Immorality: these are the issues OBC explores in this high-energy short.
