Instating a dry pledge period to avoid hazing in the form of drinking just puts the focus back on alcohol or the lack of alcohol. I don't differentiate between "good" hazing and "bad" hazing. Of course, it was only 10 weeks and you survived; that's not the point.

Yeah you're right I shouldn't differentiate between "good hazing and bad hazing".
In my sorority only the pledges abstain from drinking during the process, actives can drink. There was one thing that I forgot to mention in my last post our pledges have to wear a necklace and pin at all times during the process, the only exceptions are showers and swimming, so they have sorority nalia on at all times.
My question to you is does your sorority allow PNMs to drink in letters?
Why is it that you don't consider the "NO BOYS, NO BOOZE" during Inspiration Week hazing?
Couldn't it be said that your nationals is actually partaking in hazing it's members during that week by putting those restrictions on your life?
Granted, I don't know that much about NPC rush and have only a limited knowledge of how Inspriration Week works. We do have sororities that do I-Week.
Yes, our process is "dry" and as you stated with I-Week you all do it voluntarily, so do our pledges as did our founders and charters of my chapter and every chapter withing my sorority.
That's just my .02
