What was the name of the book before Purple Pilgrim?

• A. A course in Freshman Training
• B. The Freshman Handbook
• C. A Handbook for New Members
• D. The Fraternity Yearbook

Answer: (A)

This question hinges on how the program framed onboarding for newcomers. The name before Purple Pilgrim was chosen to emphasize a structured learning path for freshmen, hence a title that calls itself a course in Freshman Training. That reflects a formal, instructional approach rather than a simple guide or a retrospective record. The other options imply different formats—a straightforward freshman guide, a manual for new members after initiation, or a yearbook—none of which captures the idea of a defined, progressive training course that preceded Purple Pilgrim.
