From what I understand white is used to represent purity and sincerity. Every sorority I KNOW of uses it. I think that is also the reason a wedding dress is white. Same principles I mean.

If your going to go greek, why not be a goddess?

You're exactly right on both counts, ilovemyglo! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif

That is a good idea. We always wear black. Because it is easier to find and EVERYONE has one.

Last year during pref the air went out and we had to make over 100 fans with popcicle sticks and note cards to give to the girls.

It was terrible....it's very hard for me not to be grouchy when I am hot.

Hmmm...I have noticed from pictures as well as conversation, that white is the dress of choice for ceremonies for many sororities...

...yet, I wouldn't venture to say this is true of all sororities.

It seems like things always happen during Pref. One of our girls caught a piece of her hair on fire during our pref ceremony several years ago! She wasn't hurt or anything - but it was very hard to keep a straight face. That was the most interesting pref I've been involved in! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/biggrin.gif
