Interviews
We look at interviews as a great way for the Associates to get to know the brothers they may not see on a regular basis. There is no "do this for me and I'll give you an interview". Why? Because none of us went through that. The Associates are given an approved list of 25 questions, so they arent asking 'what is your favorite color?" and other useless queries.
At our chapter, all active brothers understand that an Associate will never be asked to do anything that the brother either hasnt done himself, or is not willing to do.
Our no hazing policy is strict, and hazing doesnt happen. If the Associates are given a task, there is always at least one brother with them during completion of said task. That way we can monitor behavior and maintain our chapter image as the campus leader.
So I say continue with the Interviews at your chapter. As long as the Education Program is well structured and has proper oversight by the executive board. It's not hazing in my eyes.
A task is hazing only when the motivation behind completion is the threat of force or disassociation.
