And it happens in Brown County too. 🏫 Hazing in Brown County: What Families Need to Know Brown County is home to Northern State University (NSU), a public university with a vibrant campus community. Like many universities across America, NSU has active Greek life organizations — fraternities and sororities that play a significant role in student life. But with Greek life comes risk.
