Interesting and colorful language in your post. As an AKA that is approaching 25 years (November 11), I will provide a brief explanation. During the last week in pledging, it was called "Hell Week" all pledgees greeted other Greeks (sorority and fraternity). If you're interested in a more detailed explanation, about why this was done, please PM me.

Paper vs Pledge..will always be an issue. Not everyone will agree... Some say its about what happens afterwards, which is true on the "official level", on a social level... it may differ, depend on the type of person you are, depends on what's most important to you.

Whats up frat

At the time we were pledging - we were not officially sorors so we went through the process. I believe when I pledged the atmosphere on our campus was different it was only 500 AA students compared to 16,000 caucasian students which put us in a place where we knew we needed to be close in order to get through school- this in turn spilled over into the pledge process. I am not saying that you should allow your boys to see other organizations- this is your choice- it worked for us- all the organizations became closer and as someone stated it usually happened during "hell week" only. The point of my post was to say aspirants have to make a decision for themselves whether to pledge or not but it all doesn't matter, and I'm sure you will agree if they don't learn anything during the process. I can't imagine those who pledge under you would come into set not knowing anything. You seem like your lines would be tight and I respect that.
