the 4-1-4 is supposed to be 4 weeks of pre-initiation education, I-week, and then 4 more weeks of eductaion... the latter 4 rarely end up being a full four weeks though... at least for us so far, we are still working out the kinks... the thing is, is we have pretty much crammed the old 10 week program into 4 weeks, so that we don't have a whole lot left to teach them after initiation... Like I said, the drawbacks are that we initiate people before mid-terms, and then hope they make grades, we also don't have much time to get to know the guys.
