My husband's KA Order pledge manual is called "The Varlet". He showed it to me recently. Not sure if it's online, I haven't looked.

In addition to details about the history of the fraternity, there is extensive discussions of what is hazing and why it is inconsistent with their standards, and education about alcohol use.

Now get this--this is what I love. There is a *huge* chapter on traditional masculine social etiquette--right down to how to hold a teacup, set a table for formal dinner, and how to hold a chair for a lady being seated at the table.

Then there are sections of what everyone's group seems to have: the listing of chapters, the poem defining the KA (I think sororities call it a symphony, not too sure), and the traditional songs, etc.

It came in handy, too. I could prove he was setting the table wrong for Christmas dinner.
