My experience...
If I remember correctly (I has been almost 20 years), for Kappa chapter, we did bids to become pledges, but those were more or less automatic. (Probably averaged about one bid that there was a discussion on a semester. We set the pledging requirements somewhat high, with the idea being that anyone who met them couldn't be that much of a pain in the neck, leaving control to the chapter of the ones who didn't quite make it.
To this day I still don't really have a good clue for what the *official* policy on the ability of chapters to just say no and/or use "fellowship" requirements for pledges. What can a chapter do if out of a chapter of 30 brothers, half of them are willing to say simply I don't want her as a brother of this fraternity. (Either a week before pledging or a week before initiation).
