Pretty much. Some people want to do it just to do it, and in this case, just to be on TV, so its not entirely crazy that they expect the girls to earn their letters. You have to work hard once you get in, so why not work to GET in? That doesn't mean that you're out and out trifling to them (2:30 am incident), but the pledges have to show that they are serious. Anyone can come in there and run verbal game on them and get in just to put on a shirt (yes, some are that pressed), but by having to earn it, more than likely, will weed out those that aren't serious about Zeta Sigma Phi as a lifelong committment.
I enjoyed seeing the incredible diverse mix of sisters in the sorority. Its not all black, all white, all asian, all latino, its ome of everybody.
I did want to smack Meena for being ignorant. She missed the meeting and had no idea what she was doing, or why she was getting the signatures, and didn't seem to care that she looked stupid as hell. As a sister, I would take offense to that myself. She didn't ask her line sisters (or fellow pledgees, whatever)? That just goes further to make her look bad, she already has some red flags up. And you DO NOT leave a pledge meeting like that, at least not the FIRST one. That looked bad. During your pledge period, you should put other stuff on the semi-back burner temporarily. Not completely, but Zeta Sigma Chi should have come first (after classes)...if you're serious
