Weird: I really thought I had responded, but the post didn't appear.
I think that people in the general public, press, university administration will all grade and judge and that all groups would be better off if they agreed to follow generally agreed upon protocols. I think they could be enforceable however all other NPC guidelines are or aren't.
Even though every situation is different, we do have rules and guidelines for rush, and we end up having similar policies in a lot of other areas too.
The problem with just letting each doing it's own thing is that big blow-ups like the DePauw situation reflect on everyone. Since we all know that our groups have also reorganized chapters or closed and immediate re-opened them, it's not as if we can honestly say, "well, we would never do that." And I think that whatever autonomy each group would give up would be more than rewarded by the peace of mind (and better PR and image) that would come with having a well defined process.
