Kappa 20 years ago...

What Kappa (Carnegie-Mellon) chapter did...

9-10 week pledging period. Bigs picked by Pledgemaster in week 2. (Generally 1 male and one female). From week 2 to week 6, clues left the chapter office in the "Clue Box". This could include notes, notes with Candy attached or other things (one brother actually left books he'd had for classes as clues). The Reveal was in week 6. The event was called "Nature Trail to Hell" and was a walk off campus across the city park that adjoined campus that eventually ended up at a Pizza place where the Brothers had arranged to reserve a large portion of the restaurant. Food was gotten and over the food, each pledge as asked if they had figured it out (some pledges had figured theirs out already and gotten confirmation from their big) and if they had a guess, who the guess was... After Food, we headed back to campus.

I don't think we had a faculty advisor along for the walk, but I know there were a few alumni on my walk.
