As someone who has depledged a fraternity, then joined another one I can say that it is a personal decision that can only be made by the individual in question. I know that when I was thinking about depledging I came to Greek chat, and some of my friends for advice. I received so much feedback on both sides of the issue and it did not change what was in my heart. I knew I needed to do what was best for me. I think that depledging should be an option for all pledges. I have meet so many other guys so far this semester that have depledged on my campus last year. My pledge educator told me this weekend that he depledged a fraternity before Phi Psi. It happens, and I think that some people are just anal about it for some stupid reason. Depledging does not make you any less of a person, or potential member of a different Greek organization. people make mistakes and deserve second chances.
