I take it by your words associate and just joining you are Refering to LXA!
Well, LXA was the First to Drop "Pledge", I am very proud of that even though I did not agree at the time!
I get the feeling no matter how many things are said on this thread, you are not smart enough to see the finer points of it.
You may carry on in your delusional attitued of I am right and everyone else is wrong!
I can see a bleak future for you and your Chapter if you have a Fraternity, for if they find this out, Well, take your best guess! If you are able to read, you can see the Chapters of Fraternitys/Soroitys who are being closed for this very thing that you call building a Bro/Sis Hood!
