i think its simply about what wearing letters denotes. the wearing of letters, to me, would indicate you're a member of that organization. If you see someone walking down the street wearing letters any reasonable person would also think that. And despite the current npc ways of referring to pledges as new members they are not truly members. The whole purpose of pledging is an attempt to earn membership (and earning doesn't equal hazing). If pledging wasn't about earning membership, pledging would serve no purpose and therefore not exist -- members could be iniated right after they received bids. Simply stated - if you're not a member you shouldn't be acting as if you are by wearing letters.
