Ah, memories... The sororities just give the pins back nowadays...
heh, we don't take pins (they're kinda hard to get) but pledge books/manuals are like GOLD on our campus. The tradition of stealing/obtaining books is really, really strong. There is usually a "price" to be paid to get them back (usually a doughnut or a song). Certain fraternity books have a very, very high price on their heads (our brother fraternity being one of them). It's mostly in jest, but the boys take it a bit too seriously sometimes. The "rule" is that it has to be the pledge's error. It can't be taken if, say, the pledge hands it to a fraternity man to get his chapter information. It can't be taken if it is in a bag. However, if she leaves it wide open on a cafeteria table while she goes and chats to someone on the other side...fair game.
