your delineation of the legal definition is exactly why hazing has become a bit of a meaningless joke of a word. The worst stuff that most fraternity chapters in the US in 2014 have to do are some calisthenics, pledge attire and manual labor. When you were younger and forced to do these things it was called athletic practice, a uniform, and chores. When you're a legal adult and someone has you do most of the same things at your own behest it's called hazing and is considered a crime. There was a time where this all made sense and things were out of control, but now avoiding the broad net of hazing is a difficult short of just handing membership to everyone who walks through the door.
