picky, picky, picky...
Through inference, I assumed that NGLO = National Greek Letter Organization.
I also assume that "where" = wear.

This was tradition in the chapter and the newer initiated members did not know this was considered hazing.

Ignorance of the rules (i.e. law, policy, regulations, etc.) is not a defence for actions that do not follow the NGLO's expectations.
I do agree that the punishment may not necessarily fit the crime, but that's a decision left up to the NGLO involved in the situation. Each group operates with their own definition of hazing. Obviously the majority of them will be extremely (if not wholely) similar. Hazing is not only a matter of the action itself. The motivation behind one's actions is also at question. In the end, if the NGLO has a no tolerance policy, then their chapters should avoid walking the line.
