This is one of those areas that has a LOT of grey. equeen, sounds like you have a very close group that others could strive for and envy. You are really lucky.
Sometimes I think there are just down right "_itchy" girls who complain about anything and everything. You could ask them to hang up their coat and they'd cry HAZING!!! We all know people like that... In fact my own KIDS can be like that! There is a young female pledge who is singularly disrupting her pledge class. EVERYTHING is hazing, right down to the chapter information she is expected to learn. Events that would be defined as "ice breakers" are curtailed because of this one person. She is NOT liked, she is NOT promoting unity. She is diversive. All because she can holler HAZING at every turn. I am sure she isn't an isolated example.
However, a rule is a rule, and that MUST be the greatest consideration for the wellbeing of the Chapter.
I just think some of the guidelines (or interpretaion of the guidelines) are too stringent. From drama class in college to training exercises in the Junior League, what we did by today's standards could be deemed hazing.
