Hazing is forcing your pledges to jump off your third story roof with mattress tied to themselves (we used to do that at my chapter 10 years ago before we got in trouble for it).

Putting someone in danger of life and limb certainly is hazing, as you state with your story about jumping off a 3rd story with a mattress. I think that's even a pretty extreme example.
But bragging about being hazed really isn't the best idea here. Chances are that there's someone from Pike HQ on GC and i'm sure they would not be thrilled with what you're saying. There are forms of hazing that aren't quite jumping off a building with a mattress
I'm not sure when you graduated, but if it's 10 years ago, a lot has changed since then.
Bottom line, regardless of what YOU consider hazing, Sigma Chi Omega violated the University's rules on hazing and have pretty much embarassed greeks everywhere who care about the reputation of greek life as a whole.
Would you not consider the hazing incident in Ill. to be hazing then? Just a question.
