From an oldhead in Greekdom...

When I was 'on-line' (ie pledging) back in 1986, it was standard practice for pledges to dress alike, if not identical. This practice was done for the entire pledge period. There used to be a probate show which was performed by the pledges BEFORE they crossed. We used to be required to walk in 'line', that is in-formation back to front, literally. We also were not allowed to wear the orgs letters but had to identify ourselves by that orgs name for pledges (Delta pledges were called Pyramids).

These activities were outlawed in 1990 when pledging was banned by the NPHC. By today's standard, they would be considered hazing. Go figure!
