That is my/my chapter's thinking as well. Every other sorority (and I'm pretty sure all the fraternities) on campus forbids their NM from drinking. Now, we all know that unless you are 21 you can't drink (in the US)- let me just put that out there. But who am I, as an active, to tell a NM they can't drink just because she is a pledge. We are lead to believe that hazing is anything that seperates a NM from an active. Forbiding drinking to NM seperates that woman from a sister, therefore it is hazing. It is one thing to say "No drinking during new member events" but quite another to say "You can't drink at all until you are initiated."
