mainAP report:
ITHACA, N.Y. (AP) — Cornell University officials say the college’s oldest all-male a capella group has been permanently dismissed from campus for hazing that included requiring new members to put Icy Hot muscle cream on their genitals.
According to the Ivy League school’s website on hazing, Cayuga’s Waiters initially were suspended two weeks into the 2016 fall semester for hazing that also included requiring members to sit naked in ice baths and making them run up and down a street and then consume food.

There is no sane reason why people who wish to be in a singing group should be forced to engage in painful humiliation of any kind, whether sexual or non-sexual. If the group wants that to be their purpose, they should form an S&M group and be upfront about it. Or maybe you would like to see members of your local orchestra have some kind of similar sexual hazing.
Cornell did the right thing.
