I'm just checking this thread is strictly talking about sororities correct?? Cause nearly every fraternity at my campus still uses the terms pledge and pledgemaster (except those that have other terms like Phi Delta Theta being Phikai, etc.)
No, naraht asked about Greeks/GLOs in general.
But yes, more sororities have jettisoned the terms than fraternities have.

Actually, I knew that NPC and NPHC had largely jettisoned. I was *hoping* for NIC information. Does anyone have an estimate on how many (and hopefully examples) of the NIC Fraternities still use the term pledge and the term pledge master? I know several fraternities use different terms for the pledge master (I think there is one NIC fraternity where a single Greek Letter is used for each of the officer positions)
And then there is the situation like ZBT that have totally walked away from the concept.

Did you mean Delta Chi which uses the English (Latin) alphabet?
Delta Chi has six permanent officer positions that must be filled. While each position has strict definitions of responsibility, their duties may vary slightly from each group.
"A" – The "A" is the president of the chapter or colony.
"B" – The "B" is the vice president of the chapter or colony.
"C" – The "C" is the secretary of the chapter or colony.
"D" – The "D" is the treasurer of the chapter or colony.
"E" – The "E" is the alumni relations advisor.
"F" – The "F" is the risk management manager.
^^^ Similarly, KA Order uses Roman numerals. The chapter president is called Number I, chapter vice president is Number II, the chapter recording secretary is Number III, etc.
That said, I don't think the New Member Educator (I think that's their title) falls under the group of officers that have "Number __" titles.
