Considering the last 2 sorority hazing/alleged hazing stories we've read about on here concerned very large national groups, I still call BS.

As for regional reps, the whole fricking Northeast has a rep for hazing (undeserved IMO but it's there), so that's kinda like the pot calling the kettle black.
Which resources? How about the ability to deploy resources (staff) to a crisis area and stay there? How about comprehensive leadership training? You may not think that these are important, but administrators do.

As far as regional reputations, in my opinion, the northeast has earned its reputation for hazing, particularly with sororities. This is mostly due to the now defunct ruling by the SUNY system to prohibit national social GLOs. Locals tend to be far worse, with regard to risk management issues, and tend to pull entire greek systems down to the lowest common denominator. There are exceptions, but I know that SUNY administrators regret that old ruling and are fed up with locals. Many of the "smaller sororities" mentioned in this thread are at many of these schools and have not taken a proactive role in reforming these greek systems, as evidenced by not participating in the Genesis Project by several of these groups.
