I see.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn that a Kappa educator introduced a version of "positive behavior intervention systems" into the organization.
Giving the new members the information to learn for a prize has a similar effect of giving them information for a quiz. Just that rather than punishing those that fail, you reward the ones who pass.
I think both have a place in fraternal and sororal education, just as they do in schools where I have seen PBIS introduced.
