Lightbulb Well - Roundef Individual

As said earlier in this thread...

One must choose a well - rounded individual that they believe will be an asset to their organization. There is not a "magic crystal ball" that will tell you how a prospective will perform once they are a member of your fraternity/sorority.

Now, In the interest of brainstorming some solutions, I'm going to play the devil's advocate here........
Should BGLO's reinstate the use of Interest Groups? Could these types of groups give fraternity/sorority members an idea as to how a prospective would perform? Back in the '50's, during college, my mom was a member of the Ivy Plegde Club. She stated that, under the direction of the AKA members, they had to perform weekly community service activities, fundraisers, etc. By using such groups, they were:

(A.)Instilling in the prospective an idea of the amount of committment it takes to be a part of a sorority.
(B.)Give the current members an idea of the work ethic that a prospective posses.
(C.)Fosters a spirit of sisterhood between all the ladies (current and prosp.) starting from day one

What is everyone's opinion of the use of these types of groups?By using these types of interest groups, could BGLO's elinimate hazing, ( or lawsuits and liability issues) as well?
