The Pi Phi's have an 8 week pledge period Well they do on my campus.
We're the only sorority on campus, so I think if the pledge period was longer, I think we would have a problem with finding new memembers.
Greek life isn't big on campus, and we're not recognized by the university. So if girls were to go through months and months of pledgeship, I think we'd have a lot of girls breaking pledge. In my pledge class, we had 2 girls that broke pledge, and one girl that didn't initiate yet, and my class had only 9 girls.
We want to try and expand greek life on our campus, so I think dragging out the pledge period isn't a good idea. We just as serious about community service, grades, philanthropy, etc. We just do things a little different. If grades are bad, then the sisters will help you get them back up. We are a family of course.
Pi Phi love and Mine,
Emily
