It's probably one of the cases where some chapters are more cognizant/respectful of rules/traditions than others. I think the practice varies across the board but, technically, letters are not worn by new members.
This is not a slam on the chapters that do this--sometimes things get lost over the years. For instance, my chapter always rigorously abided by our membership rules regarding legacies and included Nieces as legacies. Apparently, this isn't correct!
A lot of chapters operate more on word-of-mouth and nebulous oral traditions than actual fraternity bylaws, for better or for worse.
