Interview Book help!

If only the pledges are required to do it, then the actives have already done it, right? They were pledges once.

This is not hazing!

The point is that you have new members - new members who do not know the actives, and actives who do not know the new members. Why would you want the new members to just know about the actives - shouldn't the actives also want to know the new members? The actives may have once upon a time interviewed the then-actives, but many of those guys are gone . . .
If the point of the activity is to foster closeness between the brothers, of course. And if it's not the point - then what is?

I'd recommend if you are going to continue to do this that you have every member of your chapter participate every year along with a new pledge class.

I was a collegiate in the 90's and agree that risk management and hazing issues have probably gone too far in eliminating lots of fun seemingly harmless traditions (signatures, scavanger hunts, etc.) but it only takes one incident of hazing to shut down a chapter or an entire campus. Please watch your self, especially with posting something like this on a public message board.
