Oh - I thought initiation schedules were up to the individual group. Our maximum length is 8 weeks, but I thought that was our national policy -- I didn't know that NPC had a schedule too. Strange! Chi Omega is the only group that I know of that waits over the break for grades. I do wish that was the case, because it sucks to initiate and then lose girls for grades the next semester!
I too was a rushee going through rush that later pledged and had a pledge handbook given to us by our pledge mom - I miss that! I was also in the first pledge class at our school to be initiated in one semester. We were initiated the day before reading day -- in other words, the absolute last minute for them to initiate us!
They won't let us call our new women "Pearls" anymore either - its kinda sad for them because all the other groups on campus have a "nickname" for their girls, but ours our just NM.
