Exactly. If a sorority says scavenger hunts and interviews are hazing and a chapter gets closed because of that, oftentimes all that gets to the media is "Mu Mu Mu was closed because of hazing." Joe the Plumber (lol) doesn't think immediately of a scavenger hunt, he thinks of girls beating the crap out of each other and forcing each other to drink. The confidentiality with which chapter closings are handled only perpetuates the problem. Not that I think they should put everything out there, but they have to realize if they close a chapter because of something like that "Mu Mu Mu" and "hazing" are going to come up on Google hits everywhere.
