I just have this to say: I still have my beanie from Brownies. And I even have a picture of my Girl Scout Troop from either 3rd or 4th grade, and believe it or not, the majority of us still talk to each other. Seriously. And I looked dorky in a beanie then, but maybe I should try again?

No.
Ugh Brownies, remember how all the clothing was brown and orange? It wasn't the 1970's when I was in Brownies but it sure felt like it. I know I have my brown jumper and orange snap tie in my basement back home. I even remember the shirts had a pattern with brown and orange GS symbols. Then when I became a junior there was this unfortunate pants and vest combo, or vest with skirt. We had to have white Keds with white socks, and I distinctly remember an emergency trip to Woolworth's on West Portal before we had an event at St. Anne's for a girl in my troop.

I know many schools had rules about what certain classes could wear, and where they could sit or occupy spaces on campus.

There are plenty of things I find embarrassing as well as in poor taste and I see people choosing to wear them. Guess they haze themselves.
