Groove,
Fundamentally, no matter how much you have witnessed or heard, you are not qualified to give an informed answer to this question.
If your organization recognizes a legal pledging process, then that's great for you and your organization and I'm not mad at you. As a Brother of Alpha Phi Omega and an Alpha, I can see the benefits and drawbacks of both pledging and the Membership Intake Process. I hate on neither pledging or MIP, but I understand both.
Please don't oversimplify what you've heard about MIP. The first step to understanding it is that the power is in the selection -- not the process itself. If you are intimately acquainted with what our founders envisioned, then you would know, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that indoctrination is but a small part of "making" a member.
