although i dont think it would be considered hazing, beacuse it is my understanding that many orgs hjazing policy is only towards pledges (correct me if i am wrong, please, seeing as i am making such a sweeping statement), it does seem a bit sketchy and i could see how it could be twisted to be considered hazing by some greek life offices.
Alpha Xi Delta, Phi Kappa Psi, and other respected GLOs belong to the FIPG. Their manual can be downloaded here: http://www.fipg.org/media/FIPGMAN2001.pdf

The FIPG's section on hazing begins on page 41 of that manual.

No where is hazing defined as an activity that is exclusively targeted at pledges.

On page 44, there is an apendix that enumerates many, but not all hazing activities. The phrase "pledged or initiated members" is repeatedly used to explicitly demonstrate that initiated members may be subjected to hazing as well.
