How harmful is it to test their knowledge? They are not being placed at risk of death or injury. When people become a part of an glo and do not know the greek alphabet that is a sad day in greekdom. How can these people defend their org if they do not know its history? That means that there are people in these orgs who do not know jack about their own orgs history. These colleges and universities should start conferring degrees to people who just simply gravitated to the school because they like the look of the campus-- to hell with midterms and final exams because that causes mental anguish to the students.

I am not disagreeing with you... but I just wanted to point out that it is entirely possible to know about the history of your organization and of Greek organizations, even the Greek alphabet, without taking a written test.
