We call them pledges, but their unit is called a pledgeline, not a pledge class.
I honestly can't tell you why other than that's how we've always done it in our chapter and all other Greek lettered organizations at Georgetown do it that way.
Note: NPHC orgs (which also use the term "line") did not come to Georgetown until the 70s, decades after the oldest org at Georgetown used the term (which was prior to the desegragation of the school). My point is to let people know that my chapter didn't co-opt the term because we were trying to be like NPHC orgs.
