Pledges are often prohibited from walking on the grass as part of fraternity or sorority traditions to instill a sense of respect for the property and the organization’s values. This rule may symbolize the difference between active members and pledges, creating a sense of hierarchy. Additionally, it can serve as a bonding experience among pledges, reinforcing group identity and shared challenges during the initiation process.
