You’re missing the point. It seems harmless to have new members do dumb things like skits but singling out new members and making them do something that the rest of the chapter doesn’t have to do is considered hazing by UD. Especially when you think about how embarrassed or nervous that might make some girls. And what are the consequences for not doing it? What if you don’t have time because of your classes? What’s the consequence for not doing the things the older members asked you to do? I’d never even heard of the skit thing until I read this thread, but it’s a good example of how small things actually can be considered hazing by UD and even though it may seem dumb it can still have a significant impact on a girl. Also even if it did make the pledge class stronger, it doesn’t make the sorority stronger. Because then the new members are put below the older members, like they don’t have a say and the older members opinions are the only thing that matters. It breaks up the sorority in harmful ways. But yeah forcing new members to do (or not do) anything, no matter how dumb it seems is hazing.
