By the National Pledge Standards,
3. The length of a pledging period. An appropriate period
of pledging should not be less than six weeks or more than
ten weeks in duration.
Does anyone have any opinion has to whether or not Spring Break should be counted in the length or not?
For example, assume in a given (non-leap) year that Spring Break is the first week of April, so thatclasses let out Friday March 30th and classes restart Monday, April 9th.
a) Should a chapter be able to have Pledging on Friday, March 9th and Initiation on April 20th having 6 weeks between the dates of the ceremonies, but only 5 weeks of classes?
b) Should a chapter be able to have Pledging on Friday, February 9nd and
Initiation on April 27th having 11 weeks between the dates of the ceremonies, but only 10 weeks of classes?
c) Should a section chair tell their staffers to find something more useful to do if they are bringing quests like this up?
