Looking through my parent's Fiskites yearbooks, I do distinctly remember they made all the men who pledged Omega shave their heads and that was early 1960's. In the Bethune-Cookman books that are circa 1970's I saw the line ups based on height of all the pledges.

On my yard it just wasn't the Omegas who shave the "dogs" heads--the term used for all NPHC frats going into the probate period. It wasn't until my senior year that they all got to keep their hair (afros) out of respect to the Black Power movement.
