Sadly we live in a litigious society so the question advisors and other volunteer leaders have to ask is whether there are avoidable dangers that can be prevented. It's easier to do a banker "no scavenger hunts" rule than to personally supervise an event to be assured it is reasonably risk-free.

I understand "easier". I don't like it; I understand it.
I also understand that we (meaning all greek groups) say we're made up of men and women, but we treat them like boys and girls. Solely my opinion, and obviously not representative of NPC or any other council or school.
