For this reason, even alumnae chapters/clubs are forbidden from doing things like Road Rallies, which can be really fun, but carry a high risk of liability problems.

This is why I said they should educate the students on conducting "proper" hunts, and set up some reasonable boundaries. Once you keep alcohol out of it, there is hardly much of a risk management issue. If going around and collecting things is too risky for a pledge activity, what the hell are greeks doing for bonding activities today? Sitting around a camp fire and telling spooky stories? Oh wait, a camp fire, probably too risky to have one of those
Some rules are just demented in my opinion.
