Umm, how to answer, OK basically all initiation is, is letting the "pledges" know the "secrets" of the sorority as in, this is where you find out what the letters stand for. For example say your sorority was alpha beta chi, now during your initiation ritual it goes through background of what your letters stand for say...Always(alpha) Behind((beta) Christ(Chi) (no flaming please, I am completely pulling this out of my butt) And how everyday you should try to live up to the letters on your chest,and so on. However initiation is more about the feeling behind it then (and I have heard this from other groups too) the actual wording of the ceremony which can get kind of wordy. Please email me if I can help further, I love your series
