Reason: The NM pin is only to be worn when you're dressed properly. Why would we want them walking around wearing our pin when they (for example) are going to softball practice or going to the gym or lounging wearing sweats? The same rules apply to the badge. Why would we make the NMs wear their pins everywhere, if we wouldn't make actives wear the badge at all times?

It was made clear that the Pledge Pin (as it was still called then) was only to be worn when wearing chapter attire. Not all pledges wear chapter attire when attending classes, so we wore Pledge Ribbons instead.
