I do believe that pledging is a necessary part of the greek system. I do feel that it has become some bastardized form of what it used to be. Wood does not mean that you pledged. It means that you can get in the cut and take it. There are various reasons for you to take wood(assisting the line, screw ups, just because). I want a brother who will go through the fire with me, not just physically. If wit is a necessary weapon than I do not believe that someone who only got their ass beat can contribute. The God of the Judeau-Christian faith tested his followers that he deemed worthy. He saw something worthwhile and decided to plant a seed, nurture the sapling and watch it grow. I will stop being so self-righteous.
