Ok, perhaps I should've just said that the pledge period is about learning facts that are important to the sorority both locally and nationally, and not about earning something. It's also about learning about the people in the chapter and campus, as well as your relationship with them. But, again, I don't think that's earning anything.
Of course I think the information is important - I never said it didn't matter whether or not you pass the quizzes. It's those quizzes (well, more appropriately, the information on them) that are the red tape. I don't mean to suggest that red tape = unimportant. But, knowing such facts doesn't mean you've EARNED anything, it just means you've LEARNED something. I think there's a big difference. I may have learned what the quadratic formula is for, but that doesn't mean I earned a degree in math, or even an A in the class.
