My new member period was 5 weeks and I didn't have a bond with all my sisters but after I was initiated and started hanging around the house more I built a bond with all of them. The new member/pledging period is not the only time to build a bond.

I agree, but it's also more than just the bond that we are looking for in the pledge period. The specific issue for us is when our central office says that we can no longer have an academic requirement that men need to demonstrate BEFORE we initiate them. They expect us to hold the initiated men to an academic standard in order to retain their membership and privilages (as we do) but not the men seeking initiation?
