I'm just wondering exactly what the law seeks to accomplish?
Your premise is wrong. There will not be assault charges in many cases. Go back and read the story about SX at Michigan.

A fraternity could beat the shit out of a pledge and put the kid in the hospital but if hazing isn't illegal in the state the police can't do anything unless the pledge actually files charges. This law would allow the cops to charge the fraternity with or without the pledges help.
