The pledges don't have any say in who their big sibling is. First we look at who hasn't had a little yet (and wants one this time), and then we go by seniority in pledge class, and then by order of initiation (for example, if in my pledge class someone went through the bid night initiation first, they get to pick first). If we go through everyone who hasn't had one, then we use the same criteria for people who have already had a little. And finally, the last rule is that you can't have a little who you already know well, we like to match people up who don't know each other.
