The rector of the University of Antwerp, Herman van Goethem, wants an explicit ban on the sale of shafts. That writes Het Nieuwsblad. Such a shaft sale is a ritual in which members of a sorority buy a shaft by auction and let him or her perform tasks for a few days. According to the rector, there is still too much room for interpretation in the current baptism charter and a ban should be introduced.
