I agree with you in part. But I think it will be a while before traditional southern chapters completely move away from "hazing"(never, I hope). Once again, when I say hazing, I mean making it a challenge for pledges to become members. This is not the CNN beating and force-drinking hazing. Sigma Nu at Auburn is a very good chapter, and I have heard from people (and I've seen this as well), that legacies may be hurting them. Don't get me wrong, legacies are most often a plus, but when you have tons of them coming through, you're bound to get some ones you'd rather not have. Do I think hazing creates good chapters? No. Do I think smart and purposeful hazing creates a quality and strong brotherhood? Yes. I do still think there is a correlation between strict anti-hazing chapters and being bottom tier, at least here in the south.
