What is a letterman? I've never heard this term. My sorority, at least isn't allowed to have any men's auxilary groups or "sweetheart" type guy, and that may be the case for your sorority, too.

Kappa Delta calls them daggermen. They are fraternity men who have been chosen by the chapter to represent that particular chapter of Kappa Delta on their campus. Usually, it's a man that's done a lot for the chapter. I believe they can have 3 at any one time (could be 5). They are allowed to wear KD letters so in our organization it's a very big deal to appoint a daggerman. Some chapters participate in this tradition and some don't.

Yea...I'm not sure the situation you describe is national policy, but may be how your own chapter functioned. We had one, didn't have to be a fraternity man, and he didn't wear letters.
OP, you JUST colonized. Don't worry about some random guy who wants recognition. That's just odd.

I don't know what this is....I even Googled it and and the only relevant thing that came up was this thread.
But what I really want to say is, your colony has been in existence for how long, a week? The dude needs to back off a little!

I thought this was going to be asking what fraternity David Letterman is in 
And yeah, I would disqualify this dude from any sort of sweetheart-ish honor just from the fact that he ASKED to be one!!! Major faux pas!!
Unless your school's Greek system does that stupid thing where fraternities and sororities have unofficial bigs and littles between each other, I've never heard the term either.
