I'm with DeltaBetaBaby on this one. You need a percentage ~ simple majority isn't enough, 100% is too much (otherwise 1 or 2 naysayers could kill every potential pledge's chances). Or, you go with a point scale where each member rates each potential new member on a 1-5 or 1-10 scale, and everyone whose average is above a certain cutoff gets a bid (or in the case of sorority formal rush, gets invited to the next round of parties) and everyone below a certain cutoff gets released, and the status of anyone in between the 2 cutoffs gets discussed among the members.
