Pledgemaster is a common term here, and once I refered to myself as that in front of the Greek Advisor and a Dean. I was scolded afterwards by a few IFC and PHC members because once again, it brought up thoughts of hazing and was informal.
I didn't know "Pledgemaster" was still being used. I always thought it sounded like "Slavemaster" and what each did was pretty similar.

I don't have a problem with pledge, or pledging. When I was an undergrad I was the Pledge Educator. That's makes more sense than Pledge Master.
