That was a very nice thing to say actually, but also very rhetorical and taught us nothing.
Hazing is used successfully by sports teams and military units, and they don't have a problem with artificial class divisions.
So since you didn't post in a proactive manner are you telling us that hazing works, but its just not done correctly.
Come on kids, why does hazing work and how can we duplicate it successfully?

Of course one is going to be very close and become a tight nit group if you are all going throuhg the same thing together. The trick is to get the class to feel part of the chapter as a whole. Why make them feel seperate and like they have to "earn" brotherhood, when by sheer fact that they come out and help the chapter is the cost of brotherhood. Greeks are being assaulted on all sides, by various people who do not see the benefit of Fraternities and Sororities. We need all the help we can get, so why do we make it harder to join, and stay in, our respective groups.
