The liability has just gotten too great for the individual members, the chapters, Panhellenic, and the University. It's not just underaged drinking that can occur when HS students visit campus overnight, although that is a significant part of the problem. But if anything bad happened to a PNM (even a random car accident), the liability can fall on everyone since her stay could legally be considered a sorority/Panhellenic/University "sanctioned" recruitment event.
In addition, last year the City has passed a curfew ordinance for those who are under 18 that goes into effect this coming spring. That's something all HS students who plan on visiting campus without their parents need to be aware of. Legal troubles are not something anyone wants to deal with.
