You could trade out individual schools and states in there. I'm pointing out that it's kinda ridiculous for any organization to say that new members can wear letters but not the crest or that new members can wear the crest but not the letters. Why restrict them at all if the concern is that restrictions equal hazing? Do you see what I'm saying? My issue is not at all with the NPC itself. As I've said before, the definitions of hazing across the board are completely out of control.

They don't (at least not that I know of) but isn't it hazing that they don't? I said in the future I foresee it getting to the point where NPC organizations along with the rest of Greek Life will have to immediately initiate interests and dismantle the entire concept of pledging. That's the only way to avoid hazing if one of the key definitions of hazing is "deprivation of privileges granted to other members."

That's an odd thing to say.
