how do you define a 'great/strong pledge class'?

[johnlee24]

frats or sororities often state that their "pledge class" emerged victorious amongst their competitors' classes during the rush season.

so if you were to hypothetically claim that your pledge class is better or stronger than that of a rival, what exactly are you saying? its just that the term "great pledge class" could mean so many things, and that the phrase is somewhat ambiguous.

1. so what does a "strong pledge class" mean to you?

2. also one more question: what exactly distinguishes a freshman from other freshman, when it comes time for recruitment (for frats or sororities). what makes a great pledge?

thanks for the replies.
