I ask you if you are a member of a national sorority. If you are, most of the ideas you have here are considered hazing by those organizations. I'm not positive on the written tests, but I know scavenger hunts, pranks, and skits done by only new member and not by sisters are all considered hazing. If you want to do these activities without them being regarded as hazing, most organizations suggest that you do them with the new members.

We had a bunch of activities planned for our pledges, but so many seem to be considered hazing now...scavenger hunts, harmless school pranks, pledges entertaining actives with skits etc. We are at a loss for coming up with other ideas...so far all that's left is sisterhood activities like retreats and dinners, and the pledge philanthropy activity. Help!
