People get confused if all the members of the pledge classes are underage. But then they shouldn't be not drinking because they are pledges, they should be not drinking because they are under age. I doubt that the group touted in your national magazine would admit that underage brothers are being served. FWIW, a nonsmoking pledge period would also be hazing.
Anyway back to the main topic... Whether or not the group succeeds largely depends on their position in the social pecking order before they were de recognized, and how important the functions that recognized organizations take part in (homecoming, Greek week etc) are to the campus.
