It didn't really matter with my pledge class because we bought our shirts and what not and just didn't wear the one or two until later.

While I see the benefits of waiting till after Initiation to wear letters and being allowed to wear letters prior to that, I have a problem with chapters not keeping things uniform and adhering to NM policy set forth by IHQ.
In my "pledge manual" (since it was called that then), it said that we were "encouraged to show your pride in your chosen Fraternity by displaying the name of Alpha Gamma Delta. Pledges may wear our Greek letters on clothing and jewelry."
I think it's wrong for a chapter's rules to supercede the rules IHQ enforces.
Thoughts?
