Our Chapter calls it scrolling because some of our old members still think its okay to do. Our VP on the other hand (Pledge Mom) Gets REALLY upset if you try and scroll one of the people in the New Member class, because we have such strong rules about not hazing.

No one tried to scroll us all semster even jokingly until the last week. THey joked around with us that we thought we got off easy but now the hard stuff started and the last weekt hey would all try and get us to do something for them like "go do my laundry, now SCROLL" and if you actually went to go do it everyone would laugh cause they didnt expect you to do it....
I wouldn't consider it hazing unless it was taken seriously. In our chapter, we'll jokingly do it on obscene things...I've been known to "scroll" people to go do my COBOL homework - they obviously aren't going to do it, nor do I really want them to. My roommate did scroll me to get out of bed one day, I think that's the only time I've ever listened.
