Yeah, we don't allow our pledges to wear sandals or athletic shoes, ESPECIALLY with tucked in shirts.
To each his own, I suppose.

I didn't really clarify, when I say sandals I'm not saying like adidas flipflops, we could wear Rainbow sandals, not the giant snowshoe things from Abercrombie or anything. Couldn't wear athletic shoes either unless we were going to workouts.
Yes, tucked in shirt with nice khaki shorts and and Sperrys or some nice leather sandals is pretty much the status quo here for pledges. I don't tuck my shirt in anymore for anything other than church.
BadCat,
I wasn't really angered by the difference in the pledge program when I went up, I just wanted to flaunt my ability as a new brother to have a pledge do something haha, I moved to a northern state my senior year of high school so I have friends at these schools and I know the culture difference. I wanted to put the pledges in our shoes for the weekend. I haven't been to a west coast school yet but I have heard horrible things about fraternity life by my friends at USC and UCLA. Whole lotta "Brah"  ... tisk tisk

I can't even begin to imagine what the members of your fraternity at USC and UCLA say about you.

Rainbows don't make it better. Guy feet are ugly and pairing them wih a tucked in shirt just makes them worse. Wear Sperrys, for the love of all that's holy.

Y'all also dress up for football games in the South, and in the North we don't. Just different cultures. Not good or bad. But yeah, at a Big Ten school, guys in suits get looked at like they must be going to work or something. We girls don't dress up for class either. I think in the South, from what I understand, fraternities are more a part of the culture. At the Big Ten schools I've been at, fraternity guys are not always highly looked upon. Besides, it's so cold here most of the time that sandals aren't even an option!
