Events you may encounter during pledgeship
This description is meant to be brief. There are events during your pledgeship that hold very special meaning, and the effect of those events only works once. If we were do describe in detail every event that you will encounter, much of the experience would be lost.
Pledgeship is a program which lasts between 6-8 weeks. During each of those weeks, there will be weekly pledge meetings where you will read the Norman Shield (see link above), which contains information and history about Sigma Chi. During these meetings you will have the opportunity to interact with your pledge brothers as well as many of the active members of the chapter (and sometimes alumni too). The information taught from the Norman Shield will be used at the end of your pledge process to evaluate the possibility of entering I-Week.
There are other events scheduled throughout your pledge process to promote brotherhood, to learn more about yourself and to think about the world around you. These additional events help will help you to grow as an individual and to make new life long bonds with the gentlemen that you meet.
Additional questions?: If you have other questions about pledging Sigma Chi, or would like more information about joining, please contact our recruitment chairman at recruitment@iotatau.org
