"confessions of an ivy league frat boy." about his time at dartmouth college. >> there was about a seven to eight-week hazing term, called the pledge term. where the pledges were constantly psychologically toyed with and demeaned. had to go through a series of initiation rituals. chugging vinegar to vomit, competitive eating challenges. lots of kind of disgusting stunts we had to do. >> reporter: he claims that as a pledge, for sig ma alpha epsilon in 2009, he and fellow students were also subjected to a baptism of sorts. marking them as official pledges. >> we were told to remove our clothes and then swim in this foul-smelli ining mixture, we w told contained bodily fluids and when i became a brother, i realized that bodily fluids did go into that pool. >> reporter: it was a tradition that he admits he per pech waited as an upper classman. >> seeing that as a brother was really traumatizing. really weird. so, it was not long after that that i left. >> reporter: susan lipkins says this cycle is the blueprint of hazing. >> you come in and you just want to join the group, so, you're a victim of hazing. the next year, you're a bystander. eventually, you get senior status and now you're the perpetrator and you do onto others what was done to you. usually kids like to add their own mark, so, they increase the hazing. >> reporter: dartmouth is often cited as the inspiration for the classic movie on greek life, "animal house." ♪ dartmouth college today tells us hazing is strictly prohibited and that the fraternity andrew belonged to was investigated and charged with violating the hazing policy. we called sig ma alpha epsilon and said they could not validate the account but have since removed the pledge process altogether. and now, tonight, clemson university taking action. suspending the new member initiations of 24 fraternities, following the death of a student who went missing and died after a fraternity event. so far, there is no indication of hazing, though the investigation is ongoing. >> i think that we don't even know how many hazings there are, because nobody will tell you, because it's, you know, you're protected by that code of silence. >> reporter: as for kira kazantsev, the miss america organization says they were aware of her tomorrow nation from her sorority and are standing by their newly crowned miss america. >> i hope i'm exactly what had happened and i never wanted anything to be a surprise. i wanted to be honest. this is something that i can use on my college tour when i go into schools and really use it to help inspire women. if anything, i'm going to take this negative and turn it into a positive. >> reporter: for "nightline," mara schiavocampo in new york. next, meet the moms getting down with lighting up. but are they putting their kids at risk? in a race, it's about getting to the finish line. in life, it's how you get there that matters most. like when i found out i had a blood clot in my leg. my doctor said that it could travel to my lungs and become an even bigger problem. so he talked to me about xarelto®. >>xarelto® is the first oral prescription blood thinner proven to treat and help prevent dvt and pe that doesn't require regular blood monitoring or changes to your diet. for a prior dvt i took warfarin, which required routine blood testing and dietary restrictions. not this time. while i was taking xarelto®, i still had to stop racing, but i didn't have to deal with that blood monitoring routine. >>don't stop taking xarelto®, rivaroxaban, unless your doctor tells you to. while taking xarelto®, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. xarelto® can cause serious bleeding, and in rare cases, may be fatal. get help right away if you develop unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. if you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any conditions such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. xarelto® is proven to reduce the risk of dvt and pe, with no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. treatment with xarelto® was the right move for me. ask your doctor about xarelto® today. compact sedan that's fun,neered fuel-efficient, and affordable, there's only the volkswagen jetta. like this one, 36 highway mpg. well, except for the 42 highway mpg jetta tdi clean diesel. oh, right, and the 48 highway mpg jetta hybrid. and if you want all that variety in another compact sedan there's... huh. nothing. right now, get a great deal on all jetta models like the 2014 jetta s for $139 a month. you probably don't expect a nice mom next door to be getting high, but in certain parts of the country, it's now not only legal, it's big business. the weed-friendly entrepreneurs you're about to meet choose marijuana, not merlot, to relax. so, are they the coolest parents on the planet, or is their habit putting their kids at risk? >> can you guys work on this together, please? >> reporter: by day, she's a busy mom chasing her two sons. >> take turns, okay? >> reporter: but by night, this is how jane west likes to let loose. >> let's do it! >> reporter: lighting up a joint of artis nall marijuana. that's right, like jane, a 38-year-old entrepreneur, these young moms are unapologetic about getting high. i guess the question is, you know, if you get so high that you can't respond to your kid or you overdose on a brownie and so, then you miss some cue with your kid, i wouldn't want my babysitting smoking pot and watching my kid. >> absolutely. i wouldn't want her drinking wine and watching my kids, either. and i really think once we start to understand that this substance is no more dangerous than alcohol -- consumers of cannabis shouldn't be criticized anymore than consumers of alcohol. >> reporter: forget glasses of wine. this is now mommy's little helper. in the nine months since pot became legal here in denver, colorado, moms like jane have been navigating unchartered territory. it's not against the law to get high. but that doesn't mean taking it is socially acceptable. some are adamant that pot and pearnhood simply don't mix. how would you feel about your kid smoking pot? >> the same way i would feel if they started drinking alcohol? they need to be responsible. and i truly hope they don't start using substances until they are adults. >> reporter: jane keeps her pot stash locked up tight. >> i always keep it in my office closet. it's in this container. >> reporter: jane's well aware of the science that says cannabis can harm developing brains. so, she says, she would never smoke marijuana anywhere near her children. but she doesn't draw a firm line about being high in front of them. >> i don't think my kids should watch me smoke a joint. >> reporter: you're not opposed to being a little bit high in front of your kids. >> i am -- i am hoping that people don't have to answer this question anymore. because no one gets asked this question about alcohol. >> reporter: despite the controversy, jane is making it her mission to bring pot out of the shad doles and into the spotlight. >> if other people were willing to talk about it instead of saying, oh, my god, i was to drunk last night, to be comfortable saying, i was so stoned last night, then more people would be talking about it just as open lip. >> reporter: in fact, jane's actually leading the charge to turn pot posh. she's not only convinced this is the beginning of the end of pot prohibition nationwide, she wants to spread the word as a founder of edible events. a company that throws elegant, upscale, weed-friendly parties. it's almost as if pot use is coming out of the closet. >> i would like for it to come out in a dress and heels. >> reporter: but worki ining ins brand new industry presents some unique challenges for jane, when it comes to her 4 and 6-year-old sons. they said it on npr the other day, they said a story about marijuana and fisher said, marijuana? that's where my mom works! >> reporter: jane is not alone when it comes to moms who get high. and as brittany driver discovered, the risk comes with higher stakes than just being judged on the playground. brittany gets high regularly. >> oh, elliott. >> reporter: and she's mom to a 2-year-old boy. she's also a local columnist who wrote recently about the very real risk that child protective services can take your kids away if they think you're an irresponsible pot smoker. when you call cps, what you discovered was, even though it's legal, if a parent smokes pot -- >> they can take my kids. based on just the fact that it's in my home, which is crazy. >> reporter: colorado child protective services says a parents marijuana use is held to the same standard any alcohol or prescription pills. but critics believe parents that smoke pot are putting their kids at risk. and accusation these moms believe is based on old stereotypes. people in this country think it's not right for a mom to spoke pot. >> i have gotten backlash from people who identify as stoners saying that moms should not partake. i think a lot of that is based on bad experiences that people have had with people growing up and that's not how it is. everybody's different. >> reporter: but dr. margaret hinney at columbia university has been studying the effects of pot for 20 years. she says the fact that people react differently is precisely the problem. can a parent efficiently parent while high? >> oh, that's really hard to say, because it depends on how tolerant you are, how much you've smoked, heavy smokers can operate fairly well while they're high, because they become tolerant to all the disruptive effects. but you really want to think through what your kids are witnessing, and how your behavior might be changing after you smoke. >> reporter: of course, reck yagsal pot use is still against the law in nearly all of the country. the only exceptions, washington and colorado. here in denver, legalization has turned the city into a mecca for a new type of drag queen. >> $85 for a quarter ounce? >> reporter: jane is something of a pot aficionado. she says different var ryals help her to be creative and focused or to relax and sleep. >> busy mind when you are thinking about, i think tomorrow's wacky water tuesday, did i pack a swim suit, did i do this, did i leave the keys in the thing and what not -- >> reporter: we're having the same conversation at night. >> it kind of turns it down. >> reporter: jane brought me to the farm. her favorite dispensary, for a crash course in cannabis. here, she spends about $40 every two weeks, loading up on locally grown organic weed. but you're like the upscale u r user. >> i think, i mean -- i am who i am, but that's -- yes. >> reporter: that's kind of the demo breakdown. >> yeah. >> reporter: whether or not you think pot should be legal, even critics believe it's only a matter of time before other states legalize pot, as well. economists predict in five years, the business of legal marijuana will exceed $10 billion. which is why jane founded a ladies networking group called women grow, to encourage others to get in on the ground floor. >> the end of prohibition is inevitable in this country. there is so much potential for this industry and i'm very concerned that outdated, uneducated stereotypes about cannabis users is going to prevent women from entering this market at exactly the time they should. >> hay, gey, guys. >> reporter: jane is preparing for the highest profile event of her career. a fund-raiser for the colorado symphony orchestra here at red rock. >> this has been five months in the making and there's over 4,000 tickets sold and the seats are filling up. the performance will start in 30 minutes. and i'm -- i couldn't be more excited. i can't believe it's all really happening. ♪ >> reporter: class call music, brought to you by weed. >> without further ado, we would like to thank national cannabis industry association. jane west and edible events. >> reporter: the air is thick with the smell of pot. nothing new at a concert, yet, no one is smoking openly, because it's still elillegal, en in colorado, to light up in public. >> this is so amazing. it's over 4,000 people. and the weather is amazing. >> reporter: jane's hoping that what's happening here will help make smoking dope seem elegant, even refined. and eventually, change the tune of the debate. next, late-breaking developments in the search for missing college student hanna graham. why authorities have now charged the man they believe with the last person seen with her. ♪ yeah, girl ♪ you know, i've been thinking about us ♪ ♪ and, uh, i just can't fight it anymore ♪ ♪ it's bundle time ♪ bundle ♪ mm, feel those savings, baby and that's how a home and auto bundle is made. better he learns it here than on the streets. the miracle of bundling -- now, that's progressive. that's all i crave.e that's where this comes in. only nicorette gum has patented dual-coated technology for great taste. plus nicorette gum gives you intense craving relief. and that helps put my craving in its place. that's why i only choose nicorette. it's time to bring it out in the open. it's time to drop your pants for underwareness, a cause to support the over 65 million people who may need depend underwear. show them they're not alone and show off a pair of depend. because wearing a different kind of underwear, is no big deal. join us. support the cause and get a free sample of depend at underwareness.com if you suffer from constipation, you will likely also suffer from gas. introducing new dulcogas, which starts working to eliminate gas bubbles in minutes for effective relief. dulcogas, from the makers of dulcolax- nothing relieves gas faster. right here. with a control pad that can read your handwriting, a wide-screen multimedia center, and a head-up display for enhanced driver focus. all inside a newly redesigned cabin of unrivaled style and comfort. ♪ the all-new c-class. at the very touch point of performance and innovation. ♪ and finally tonight, late breaking developments in the disappearance of uva student hannah graham. after searching the home of this man, 32-year-old jesse matthew, police charging him tonight with, quote, abduction with intent to defile, in graham's disappearance. after closely examining this series of surveillance videos, authorities eye debit if iing him as the last person seen with the 18-year-old. searches of his car and apartment gave authorities enough probable cause to make him a wanted man tonight. graham, as you know, has been missing for 11 days. our thoughts are with hannah's family tonight. with the search volunteers working to bring her home. thank you for watching abc news. tune into "good morning america" tomorrow and, of course, we're online at abcnews.com. good night, america.

actual low pressure is way down to the south, off the coast of carolinas and what this will be doing is hugging the sea line, but the high pressure is up to the north and that high pressure is slowing

add them, there had been reporting about this group and u.s. officials were concerned about it. they were concerned it was going to drive the group underground, miss their opportunity to hit them.

is a chronic target for the mentally ill. just one day after a man climbed over a fence and got into the white house with a knife, another breach by another apparently mentally unstable men. kevin carr walked up and said he had an appointment with president obama. he told agents he was the prince of peace who often communicated with the president telepathically. carr, of course, was turned away. but minutes later, he was at this white house entrance, driving his chevy cruz. he was directed to a restricted parking lot inside the complex for additional screening. but according to court records, instead of parking, he kept driving 25 feet in the direction of the white house and immediately arrested. this morning, the secret service is saying the officer acted appropriately. but this demonstrates that the white house is a magnet for the mentally unstable. >> we see people across the country. they leave and come to washington because they're on saysed with the forecast. >> most are not dangerous, but some are. like this man firing into the white house in 1994. or this woman killed by police last year after she smashed her car into a white house gate. and this stunning statistic,

apart and kills people. it's a fact of modern life that power is more diffuse. >> and another one, presidential skru skrurt. how surprised he got into the white house? >> not surprised he jumped the fence, still surprised he got in. >> president obama's situation, seems like he's in a box. even on foreign policy, on the specifics the country seems to agree with what he's doing. yet has the lowest approval rating on foreign policy in his entire presidency. how does he get out of that box are more secure and -- so i think they do support what he's decided to do. >> i wonder, is there something to this, you know, second term curse. you look at modern presidents. hit the sixth year, it's almost impossible for a president of either party to have much support that late in the game. >> i think his challenges are rooted in the fact that first of all, he had certain elements of the media and the republican party who were always against him. it's almost impossible for the average american to understand how totally political washington is today. >> take us out ten years. we were here ten years ago. the first cgi conference. and i asked you where did you want to be, and you said -- >> if we do this together for ten years, i think there will be a measurable impact on some of the world's most severe problems. >> promise kept? >> i think so. we can document improvements in the lives of 430 million people in many countries. and many alive because of the aids medicine in contracts we negotiated. in terms of the sheer impact, it's bigger than i thought. >> set the bar ten years from now. >> i'm trying to work myself out of a job. i'd like it if the world developed a preference for this model of problem solving. so in every country in every region there was support from government and

is very much about him and his policies. abc's jon karl is here. it could shake up the president's final two years in office. >> george, this will go a long way towards defining president obama's last two years in office and while he hasn't been on the ballot this election has seemed one all about the president. this morning, president obama is playing a starring role in elections across the country. >> obama's senator, not yours. >> pryor, o-b-a-m-h. >> reporter: they have painted this election as a referendum on obama prompting even some democrats to run their own ads criticizing the president. >> i'm not barack obama. >> the administration's policies are simply wrong. >> reporter: michelle nunn in georgia aired this ad to show a photo of her with president obama is not what it

considered politically toxic to many of those democrats running? >> it won't surprise you to hear that i do not agree with that assessment. >> reporter: i think you'd expect him to say that. i don't know what else he could say of the you're over at the map. what are the key races you'll be looking at tonight when we think about this control of the senate which hangs in the balance. >> reporter: you have 16 states where you could see party control change. 13 are held by democrats but if you want to see if republicans get control, here are three states to watch most closely, first of all, colorado. this is a state that went twice for barack obama. it's where he accepted the democratic nomination in 2008 but as you can see the republican cory gardner has a slight edge and a slight edge in the early vote and could win there. iowa, this is the state that really gave birth to the obama candidacy in 2008 when he beat hillary clinton. it's neck and neck. if anything you've seen some momentum on the republican side with joni ernst. if republicans win both of those states they will win control of the senate. but there is a wild card here. kansas. this is a state that is about as republican as they get. they haven't defeated a republican senator here since 1932 but look at this. an independent, orman, greg orman who could win this race and then there's an all-out bidding war because he hasn't said whether or not he would caucus with democrats or republicans. he could hold the balance of power on election night. >> and on top of that could be runoffs in louisiana and georgia in december and january, which means we may not know who will control the senate for awhile. >> reporter: i think there is a very good chance we will have no idea at the end of the night would will control the senate. >> let me bring in matt dowd. you saw how disillusioned americans are with president obama and how much a factor this was. this is a broader rejection election. >> i think it's an election about how sour the country is and about both parties. neither party in the aftermath of this election is going to be embraced by the country. the president for the second midterm in a row for him can win a presidential election usually going away for the second midterm. this is a rejection of him and his leadership because he is the democratic party and the democratic party is likely to lose seats. >> that's what it's looking like. ahead to 2016. a new poll out this morning which shows hillary clinton far more popular than her potential republican opponents right now and in many ways, today's midterm is the starting time for 2016. >> it will begin before the polls close tonight. all these candidates will be in their rooms, potential candidates and i think the biggest question mark in this whole thing is hillary clinton. democrats will pivot off her and republicans will. she is the candidate most popular and i think at that point is that decision she has to make is everything else falls from there. the dominos fall based on hillary clinton. >> okay, matt dowd. thanks very much. you'll be here and jon karl will be here. we'll have our special election hour. seven hours of breaking news across all our platforms. pri primetime special at 10:00 p.m. we're covering it more deeply than ever before. >> and you'll be back with the latest. a scandal rocking the air

of those nuclear facilities. they had real leadership problems then. they have real leadership problems now. apparently these two commanders relieved of duty one for saying to a pregnant air force worker that her career would be negatively affected by pregnancy and also some verbal abuse and have had real problems with gambling, drugs, alcohol and cheating. they're trying to clean that up right now. >> people want to know, are the missiles secure when you have this behavior? >> one of the things they told me is absolutely this will not affect the security and we're thankful for that. >> yeah, that's a small thing to be thankful for -- a big thing to be thankful for. you'll be part of our election coverage. you know it's election day when we're all here. >> all excited about the

can see one driver pulls up just as carlesha and her kidnapper disappears off frame. a person on foot shows up too. and police say witnesses have come forward saying they heard carlesha screaming for help. >> this is a joint effort doing everything that we possibly can to find her. >> reporter: carlesha's devastated father also hanging up flyers and he has a message for that mysterious man. >> i just want her to come back home safe. i don't care what anybody have to do, just come home. that's all i'm asking. >> reporter: philadelphia police are now offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to an arrest or conviction. police say they are looking for a ford taurus silver or gray with two busted out windows on the driver and passenger side, george. >> thanks very much. to amy with

the faa says when the workers put in a sealant and adhesive in the joint they didn't put these rivets in fast enough to ensure a good seal so that moisture wouldn't get in there. southwest says it is looking forward to defending its record in court against the government. amy. >> all right, david kerley, thanks so much. and from planes to cars, the government is investigating whether honda failed

pulling health care workers all of her bups from the streaming service spotify days after the release of her hot new album "1989." well, now spotify is working hard to try to win her back and rebecca jarvis has our story. ♪ never ever >> reporter: it looks like taylor swift is never ever getting back together with spotify. the number one streaming service in the world. after swift and her music label abruptly pulled her entire catalog from the service which has 40 million subscribers. swift has never seemed a big fan of streaming services writing in "the wall street journal" last year piracy, file sharing and streaming have shrunk the numbers of paid album sales drastically and every artist has handled this differently" it sets up a showdown with apple where swift's music is still available on itunes. for her new album "1989" the singer had an exclusive agreement for a track by track release on itunes. and on beats, a streaming service which apple acquired last january, "1989" has had an incredible opening week run with 1.3 million copies sold. but swift didn't release "1989" on the service. insiders speculate swift has always been weary of spotify, initially refusing to release her 2012 album "red" to the service. spotify says they hope swift will change her mind and join us in building a new music economy that works for everyone. and from what i'm hearing this morning taylor swift isn't the only artist planning to go this exclusive route. rumor has it beyonce's new album will drop november 14th, also exclusively on itunes and the thing is this changes how

that's right, because there are two people of four on trial right now. one of them is not even accused of a forcible sexual act. he's the one who actually had some relationship with this woman and it seeps he's more accused of helping organizing, et cetera, in this but still charged with exactly the same crime. his defense, it seems is going to be i didn't have the intent, i was too drunk, i didn't know what was happening, et cetera. one of the other defendants who is charged with a forcible sexual act, we don't know exactly what the defense is going to be. i would expect it's going to be some version of consent. expect that all the defense attorneys are going to be putting the police and prosecutors on trial. you already heard it in that sound bite there where they're questioning why they didn't get certain evidence, where other evidence is or isn't. but they're going to have to do more here than just challenge the police and prosecutors. >> vanderbilt's role could be an issue, as well. >> the defense is actually saying that when these students were questioned by the vanderbilt authorities that they were coerced into saying things that they wouldn't have ordinarily said so it's the reverse here. the defendants saying the university was too tough on us. >> a lot at play here. dan abrams, thanks very much. to ginger with the weather. >> let's talk freeze, yes, freeze in the southeast. how about we look at places like south carolina and georgia. south georgia even in that frost advisory this morning but things, they are about to cook and warm up. you know, last weekend columbia, south carolina, had their first and earliest ever trace of snow. today into the 70s. louisville, 67. all ahead of the front this mild air pushes up into the northeast and even parts of new england. but behind it, it is far from mild. look at the numbers. these are windchills and thought we'd put them on, 24, denver, feels like 28 in billings. salt lake city, 23. test test. >> hello, ginger, dave murphy on the terrace right now with an update from accuweather. lots of sun up over the horizon, a few clouds here and there. temperatures aren't bad around 50 right now and 67 is your high for election day, clouds mixing with sun. still >> all that weather brought to you by target and i am headed to nashville right after the show because we're doing a big cma show tomorrow morning and looks like we're just going to beat the rain. >> big concert in the morning. >> yes, we do. enjoy. coming up, important information for parents, i don't know how to say this. how your children can make you sick. the common childhood illness that is could lead to scary symptoms. nascar is getting ready to crack down after that wild bruehl with jeff gordon right there in the center of it all and why tensions are so high at the racetrack. we're going to find out. ♪ ♪ when the snow comes to cover the ground ♪ ♪ it's a time for play, ♪ it's a whipped cream day ♪ i wait for it all year round ♪ in winter it's a marshmallow world! ♪ ok who woh, i do!t rolls?

right now. we'll complete interviews with her a little later on. but give her time to settle down. >> commissioner, what details can you share with us about how she was rescued? >> well, first of all, this was a case that really had us very, very concerned. it's very rare -- in fact in my 46 years i have never seen a kidnapping on video. so it really added to the sense of urgency we had to find her as quickly as we could. we had a lot of different leads we followed up on. but what really broke the case is when we were able to put video out through the media. they maintained a surveillance, he exited the car and they took him down at that point in time. didn't want a hostage situation. so they used good judgment in deciding when to take him. and they waited until he exited the car. at the time we didn't know her condition or anything else. but we didn't to want put her in jeopardy. >> as you alluded to, commissioner, so many law enforcement agencies working together. the public, the video, all that have coming together. and your department in philadelphia, you've had good results in using social media and getting video out as quickly as possible. >> oh, yeah. we do it all the time. we put stuff out on youtube as fast as we get it. we've had a very, very good success rate. and it really helped us out this case and probably saved this woman's life. had she remained with him, i don't know the outcome. >> we shuddered to think what could have happened in the video we were referring to. and she was fighting. and she kicked out the window of the car that she was abducted in. what does that tell you about her fighting spirit? >> my understanding is, even after she was in the car and bound, she continued to fight and struggle with this guy. so she's got a lot of fight in her, and probably helped keep her alive. >> it was a joint effort all the way around. it's good to see you under these happy circumstances, commissioner ramsey, thank you. >> thank you very much. and good to know she's home with her family right now. >> the point, everyone coming together. and politics, and fallout from the historic republican sweet. president obama took his medicine wednesday,

you know, i was enjoy having some kentucky bourbon with mitch mcconnell. >> reporter: but just last year, president obama ridiculed the idea of having a drink with mcconnell. >> why don't you get a drink with mitch mcconnell, they ask. really? why don't you get a drink with mitch mcconnell? >> reporter: on social media, it's been branded the bourbon summit. with distillers and bourbon makers offering to host the party. drinks, maybe, but the president signalled he's not changing course. suggesting democrats lost control of the senate primarily because so many people didn't bother to vote. >> to the two-thirds of vote chores chose not to participate in the process yesterday, i hear you too. >> reporter: he plans to move ahead with a controversial executive order on immigration in
