"The university policies and international fraternity guidelines are very clear about what constitutes hazing," she said.
Restrictions such as assigning study hours or cleaning duties for first-year students and limiting students' activities, jobs or involvement in outside study groups could be considered hazing, which is why some fraternities are doing away with the practices entirely...
"There's a positive to those restrictions, but not when a new member feels he's being singled out," she said.

Here's a "Catch 22." Restrict study hours or study groups, then get hammered when the new member GPA drops.
Also, as much as I've read, and as long as I've been around, I would disagree that ANY hazing policy and/or guideline is "very clear."
All seem to me to be open to personal interpretation and confusing at best. There are obviously common sense aspects, but some rules are so far out that they seem simply silly.
