I would have to say it was the Ritual of Initiation. Never had I been so moved, so inspired, in my life up to that point (though watching my children being born, and getting married are the only two events that I could put in front of it).
I was so blown away. Nothing in my experience could have prepared me. I was expecting what you see in the movies, or read in the news - it was so completely different AND hit home.
The Ritual keeps me energized...it has led to the friendships, not only from my chapter brothers, but to close friendships with brothers from chapters all over.
Not to stereotype too broadly, but what I noticed is how much emphasis the chapter put on Ritual, NOT "Hell Week" or what the other orgs called their weeks (some truly were and are still HELL)...but the emphasis is on the ritual itself...and that was what I was looking for anyways when I rushed.
