Usually at the bid vote we would decide who was going to be who's big. So by the time the AM ceremony came around everything was finalized. What sort of gifts do the bigs give the AM's in your chapter? If we had new pads. in time we would give them to the AMs, if not the big would let them borrow their copy until the new ones came in. Also house letters and that semesters rush shirt. But some guys would go the extra mile and get some additional stuff. In my family for initiation we would give flasks with the CoA and the Big's and Lil's numbers on it. Just curious.

We usually make it a point to make sure we have new Ped's for them when they go through. Usually get a big box of them at the beginning of the year, may last us a year or two, we just got the new editions earlier this year.

As far as gifts, Bigs are responsible for donating old LCA tee shirts, "letters", to their littles. If they don't have many usually they can find someone else to help with the donation. Some families gifts are a tradition, hoodies are popular here, and various forms of barware. My big got me a hoodie, pilsner and a shot glass. The littles promise to keep the tradition alive.

It should be basically an Active who feels that he can and wants to work with
a little Brother. This not something that should be taken lightly as the Big is the one leading and teaching the neophyt in the proper way!

If of course does not work then there needs to be a change made!

As was mentioned, it is the Zeta who makes the choice, not the N A!
