Letters

Our pledges get rush shirts that usually have letters on them some where.

Not to make people mad (and I'll probably get flamed for this), but I think it's a crock of **** to make people wait to get their letters...for a number of reasons.

Yeah, you should get flamed for that

[B]Someone said earlier why wear letters when you don't know what they mean. I look at it this way, that person bears your organization's and chapter's name during their new member period. Their actions can be just as damaging to your chapter or organization as an initiated member...just because they can't wear the letters doesn't not make them a part of your chapter (on a trial basis). Other than the fact that they don't know the ritual, and can't attend chapter meetings, there isn't much difference between them and an initiated member.

That (combined with their not knowing what the letters mean)seems like a BIG difference, to me.

I guess what I'm trying to say is look at what's really important in consideration to your letters, rather than the pettiness on when someone gets to wear them.

There's nothing petty about discussing when someone should get to wear letters. Just because you don't think your letters are important doesn't make those of us, who DO feel our letters are important, petty.
