Our chapter does this. It was one of the first things we learned, actually.
We got quizzed on things like the founders and basic history and stuff during pledging, and you had to pass those (with a 90) as part of the requirements. Granted everything we needed to know was all there for us in the pledge book, and we knew what was going to be on each pledge quiz the week before, so we had no excuse not to know it.
33girl is right. Not everyone who becomes a pledge becomes a Brother. My chapter doesn't cut anyone during rush...it's during the pledge period that people leave or not. I'm fine with that...you find out who is in it for the right reasons and that makes a stronger chapter.
