People pledge for all sorts of reasons...it's why they stay active and IF they stay active that's important.

I myself was accused of 'pledging for the wrong reasons,' b/c I'd recently broken up with a bf and wanted to make some new friends outside of my little circle, and nearly got voted out at the midpoint of pledging because of that. It was said that I was "in it for the wrong reasons," and that I'd "never have anything good to offer the Brotherhood." I was also very involved in the Baptist Student Union at the time, and they couldn't understand why I wanted another organization, and APO couldn't understand why I couldn't give them all my time, either. So, I see 'multi-org'ed' not just as belonging to multiple GLO's, but multiple orgs that require time. Ok, so I wasn't Super Pledge or Super Brother when active, but I've definitely stayed involved in the Fraternity for nearly 20 years....so much for never having anything good to offer, huh?
