Bill:
As you journey through the brotherhood, you will each have one particular member to help guide you, though all members will be available for guidance. You will each be given a big brother. Your big brother is the one to look towards during this pledgeship process. Tonight, you will each have an opportunity to meet with your big brother and become acquainted with him. In fact, your big brother is the one standing directly behind you. You are now all officially pledges. Congratulations.

Bill:
[privately to Joe] Unfortunately, there's a slight problem with the big brother selection. I don't want you to assume that his lack of attendance here tonight is reflected upon his lack of desire to be your big brother. You will simply meet him as soon as the opportunity presents itself.
