Because hazing has gone so out of control, many schools and national GLOs are counting anything that pledges MUST do that members do not is hazing. Making pledges wear pins is one of them. I know of fraternities that make their pledges wear their pins on their underwear when drinking. You don't think that's hazing?

Another example: we wanted to do a big sister hunt around campus, but we were told it was hazing. Why? Because the sisters didn't have to do it. At some chapters, the sisters were sending pledges into the woods during the winter on this "big sister hunt." That's hazing.

Some chapters might not take it too far, but some do, so these controls need to be there. Girls shouldn't have to 'earn' their sisterhood. That's ridiculous.
