That's wrong. Now, yes I am grown and away from college, but I go back every year for Homecoming, because I am very close not only to my sands, but the rest of the brothers at that chapter. When we come back for homecoming, we go back to some of the places where our pledging sessions took place. We sing some of the scroller chants we had to sing when we were on line, and we get emotional doing this. It's a bond I can't explain. These places are very sentimental to us. Are there brothers in my fraternity who didn't pledge and were initiated the new, "legal" and correct way? Yes, and I still accept them as my brothers, because it's not what you do to get in, but what you do once you're in. I pledged 16 weeks the old way and I'm proud of that, I'm also financial as well. I think since I worked very hard to earn my letters, I love it that much more. We sacrificed a lot for each other on line, and I would do the same for a brother today. I know a lot of Greeks don't agree with my opinion on the way I think pledging should still be, but like you said, it's a matter of opinion, and yes, I do wish things were still done like they used to be.

Most of this response is...extra information. What you claim to have gone through to become a Krappa was and always will be YOUR business. I'm not impressed either way but that's that.

What matters now is that you were duly initiated and are currently financial. Consider keeping the rest to yourself because it seems like you're protesting too much.
