Put me down in the non-PC bunch.
While I would personally kill any chapter which paddles, and arrest the paddlers, I think pledgeship should be demanding.
I also think personal servitude is a no-no (like MTV sorority pledges having to stay up late to be the members' designated driver, or cleaning members' rooms, running errands, memorizing useless details about a member, etc.)
I think pledges should learn the fratenity/chapter history, know the members names, majors, and hometowns, and should clean the "public" areas of the house.
I think there should be pledge projects for the chapter (plan and organize - but not finance - a dance/party) and for the community (service project).
MTV's fraternity pledges show how all these new guys have to learn brothrhood - sharing, tolerating, working together - in order to have a decent brotherhood. It's going to be fun to see where the MTV pledges go.
