Breaking the law by having the chapter provide booze to under-age drinkers, what happened next compounded the issue. All in all these guys took a stupid idea and managed to make it worse.
1. Ordering pledges to drink is hazing which equals assault under the law in some states (and all of Canada).
2. They provided the booze as a chapter, to the under-age drinkers; which not only again was illegal, but then made the chapter legally liable.
3. Dumping the pledges in a state of extreme intoxication shows a reckless disregard for the pledge's safety and health; legal violation number three.
