For what it’s worth, and after more than 25 years perhaps not that much, I was a Rush Counselor at my college senior year (what you refer to as a Gamma Chi - a term I’m unfamiliar with.) But I am somewhat familiar with the rushing process from the inside, and as a viewer on the outside having guided freshman girls. If you have any specific questions, I can provide insight. From what I saw when my daughter went through Rush, it doesn’t seem like things have changed much (if any.)

As for hazing? For girls, that consists of being given presents during pledging. Candy, gifts, etc…

For boys? A different story when I was in school - the boys had to do all sorts of not-so-great things, and a lot of drinking, and the stories are fortunately amusing as noone was seriously hurt during my undergrad years. I don’t know how much hazing there is today.
