I would love to institute something like a "Big of The Week" where each new member is assigned a different fully initiated brother each week as a mentor where they sit down and talk about the fraternity and their expectations, go out to lunch, go play sports, catch a movie etc...so this way the new members are seeing different faces up until the point they pref their actual BIGS. The only thing is we have many more initiated brothers than we do new members so some guys wouldn't get a chance to fully participate.

Make the pledges meet the brothers (go to their rooms and talk to them) with either a signature sheet they have to get filled out or getting and memorizing stuff about the brothers (hometown, major, pledgeclass, big brother, positions held, etc.). I don't know if Sig Ep would consider that "technically hazing" (or why you would care if they did, do it anyways it's pretty clearly harmless) but it seems a lot more meaningful than a survey and a date. Plus then you can make them learn the same thing about everyone in the house (however many a week X however long your pledgeship is) instead of one brother a week. And don't assign when to meet brothers, just tell them they have to have met them all by a certain point.
