The chart points out that there is a continuum with both extremes defined. Most programs dofall somewhere in the middle. If some of the elements of "pledging" didn't happen in your experience, then your program was not to that extreme on the continuum. In the early 80's, most of the programs were exactly what is described on the right hand side of the chart, with fear, intimidation and subservience being the hallmarks of being a pledge. It was extremely offensive and that is why we, as Greeks, have had to change it.

I agree with the NM education/development side of the continuum and believe with all my heart that it is more effective.
