Well, when I was an undergrad, the organization I belong to was suspended therefore I could not join. I had to join Grad through the MIP process, and I did not like it at all!
I wish I had the opportunity to go "on line" officially. Now I have to do it on the down low tip.
Now I am not saying that I want to be hazed, because hazing and pledging are TWO DIFFENT THINGS!
I just want to have the experience of pledging.

You want the experience of pledging? Stay financial and active in your org. Attend and participate in chapter meetings. Attend the business sessions at your state, regional and national conferences. Run for an office. Chair a committee. I GUARANTEE that if you do these things over a lifetime of membership in and service with your org that YOU WILL UNDERSTAND THE TRUE MEANING OF PLEDGING. (Can I get an amen from someone who knows what I am talkin' 'bout?)
Remember the REAL WORK begins after the initiation process.
Maybe I am getting old and becoming the thing that some youngin's seem to fear--a old head, middle aged, office holding, dues paying, conference attending, rule obeying member. Be careful--YOU TOO may become one of us some day provided the orgs are not sued out of existence.
