This politically correct way of acknowledging pledges is rediculous. The sad thing is this liberal nonsense is beginning to infest the once prestigious fraternities of the southeast. From Ole Miss to Virginia, national hedquarters are slamming once prominent chapters with quotas and stipulations that tarnish the prestige reputaions these great institutions once had. Today it seems like a numbers game. Every national chapter wants numbers, it seems the quality of memebers has taken the backseat to the goal of the national fraternity's 5,000 "new members" for the year 2006. It was once an honor to pledge a fraternity and earn the respect of the current brothers, it gave you a sense of pride that noone else could ever experience. However, now it seems that joining a fraternity is just something you do. Everyday I see kids wearing my letters that I wouldn't give the time of day to and its beginning to take its toll on the pride I once had for my great organization. Its time to take our stand so that chivilary and true brotherhood does not die out.

I think you guys are looking at it from just a fraternity perspective. Quotas and numbers pressure have been going on for sororities for a long time. And that's in every region of the country.
Welcome to our world boys!
