Look at some of the lawsuits from hazing. Who gets sued? The chapter officers, the chapter advisors, the national office, the university, sometimes the chapter officers parents, and anyone else the lawyer can think of.

Here is a case in point:

Woman's family sues university, students over death
CONCORD, N.H. -- "The family of a Plymouth State University student killed
during a suspected hazing incident last year is suing the school and
members of a sorority, accusing them of negligence in the woman's death.
Dan Duckett, lawyer for the family of Kelly Nester, said his clients are
frustrated by the lack of criminal charges filed in the case, and with the
level of cooperation with authorities by the women who were with Nester the
night she died."
Note: As I recall, this happened off campus as the women were returning from a function.
