That's really going out on a limb in a Greek system like this one.
I completely agree. That said, if the sororities are requiring members to participate, it's the sororities who are violating any potential hazing rules, not Sigma Chi. My understanding is that sororities stopped participating back in 2013, but seem to have resumed participation. The school swooping in to save these ladies from themselves should be every bit as offensive as anything Sigma Chi has done.

GLOs are private organizations. If we want to remain private organizations, we need to educate school administrators as to the fact that there are clear boundaries of jurisdiction--we will handle our own matters internally, schools will have the choice of trusting that we will or disassociating our organizations.
