As someone who knows a bit about SUNY schools, everyone up there hazes, not just locals and not just nationals. It's rampant and it's going on right now as we speak. One is no worse than the other, and their system needs to do something to try and lessen it in both sides!
As for the national/local debate, locals are great, so are nationals. Our campus had 5 of each. Hazing was bad in almost all of the houses, except 2 (one being mine!), and I didn't really see the benefit of the national organization until later. But looking back, I would never give back my sorority experience in my international organization for the lack of rules a local can provide.
