Is making a pledge sing hazing?
I'm usually a lurker, and this will be my second post since Fall of 09, so please no heavy mocking. My fraternity as most is part of NIC, and has a strict 'no hazing' policy. Many of my brothers have taken that as a no physical contact rule, and have started other forms of 'testing' or penalties for wrong answers. One of these is singing in public or in private if a pledge does an act that is against the rules or gets an answer wrong.
The songs are usually child hood nursery rhymes, pop-music, etc. As far as I can tell it serves no real benefit, other than humoring the brothers. On the other hand, no pledge in the last year or so has had any qualms with it. I'm just curious if it can be considered hazing?
