Since the photo was in a public FB album, it's not a secret. For the purposes of this forum, though, I'll just say that it appears to be a lovely small ceremony to end pledgeship* and prepare for initiation.

*"Pledgeship" is easier to say than "the new member period."
I agree - good description.

I remember when I participated in the ceremony as a new member/pledge (this was 25+ years ago), and how it felt to be without my new member pin afterward. I do think the ceremony helped me get in the right frame of mind for initiation, which happened shortly thereafter.
