Then some groups have a really short actual "pledge process," but they take care of a lot of the information dissemination during this "pre" interest group phase.

My org. does not employ any of the above, so it is something that does not entirely make sense to me (nor should it).
Point of Clarification: T.I.A.R.A.s are interested women, not pledges. Mu pledges have a different name and I can't remember if it's private, so I'm not going to post it here. T.I.A.R.A.s (Mu Sigma Upsilon), W.I.L.D.s (Lambda Tau Omega), Lynxes (Omega Phi Chi), Irises (Omicron Lambda Pi), etc. are all interests. Pledges are selected from the interest group and, in all cases I'm aware of, have an entirely different title.
