Back in the old days, my chapter had a Beau and about 4-5 Big Brothers. When I was pledged, Bob was a Big Brother, his sister was a charter Gamma Tau. For the next 3 years he was our Beau Bob!

When he first became acquainted with our chapter, he was sporting "GDI" on his mustang car. After seeing how much our sisterhood meant to us, he changed his views and was intiated into TKE.

We had a chapter sweetheart, but not in the usual way. We would award a guy a certificate and the unofficial title of DZ Sweetheart to someone who had helped us out a lot during the year. My ex got it one time for helping us move furniture in and out for recruitment, bringing us dinner while we were decorating, making our mix tape for theme night, etc. Another sister's bf got it one year for designing our t-shirts and having them made for us at a cheaper rate, etc. I don't think we were allowed to have chapter sweethearts like most schools do. At least that's what I thought was the case.

That's so cute; I love it! :)

I'm a Chi Phi sweetheart. They voted on it as a chapter, I'm pretty sure that i got it because I hung out there almost every weekend my entire freshman year. All the guys i knew where their 2001 fall pledge class, i got to know them, I partied and studied and hung out with them, anything you would do with any other friend. All the fraternities here have sweethearts (KA calls them roses) and I think it happens the same way with each chapter. We had a really cute little induction and they took us out to dinner (there were 3 or four of us). It's nice. none of the sororities have sweethearts though.

Pikes have Dreamgirl and we usually take time at chapter to put in nominations for the highly coveted position and then a vote is made. Dreamgirl usually is given to a girl who helps out during rush and is a freind or girlfriend of one of the brothers. We used to have a formal that was a crowning of the Dreamgirl and all that stuff but due to financial reasons a few years before my day it got phased out but we are trying to get it revived.

Sweethearts
 

I was nominated as a Sigma Tau Gamma Sweetheart in Spring 2003. A woman from each sorority was nominated and the sororities each held a canned food drive to determine the winner. During their weekend-long philantrophic event the brothers held a Talent Show (I sang in the show) and annouced the Sweetheart nominees. They escorted the women onstage and presented them with a rose. The results of the food drive were then announced and the winner was crowned.
I did not win...but I was honored to be nominated!

Thanks! :D Evidently it was a tradition that sort of stopped after the chapter recolonized, but we brought it back because we thought it was cute, too.

To be our "Lad of the Lamp" you have to win our annual Mr. UK Pageant, and he gets his picture in the middle of our composite.

hey all it's my first time posting on here... figured the sweetheart thread would be as good of place as any to start! hope this post goes under it's reply!
i was named sweetheart to a wonderful group of phi sig kap boys as they were reconolizing on my campus! they voted on it as a chapter, and i couldn't have been happier to except their nomination! they are a wonderful group, who i hang out w/ alot! they help me out as much as i help them! it's always good to know you have a group of guys on campus that will be there for you no matter what!

SAI isn't allowed to have sweethearts, Big Brothers, etc. I know that our Phi Mu Alpha chapter has one though.

I don't think AGD does any form of "sweetheart," but one of our girls was the Delts' sweetheart this year. She got her picture in the composite and everything. And since her last name is "Brown," they just called her "Brother Brown." :)

Dreamgirl is always fun. Every year in May we have our Dreamgirl Formal where we crown our dreamgirl for the year. We have a song that we serenade her with " the dreamgirl of pi kappa alpha, is the dreamgirl I'll always adore.........." It is a huge honor for the girls and there is usually always drama and jealousy after from the girls that didnt get the title. But all of the girls that make it to dreamgirl court are always top notch Pike girls.

The AGD's here have the Alpha Gam Man which they give to about three guys at their end of year formal. It's not an official sweetheart but more like recognition to the guys that have helped their chapter through out the year.

We do something very similiar to that...we worked really hard to set it up with our PCD to make sure it was okay. They're called "Gammie Guys" and they are men who do a lot for our chapter. We made up a sweet little ceremony for them and they all have a "sponsor" who basically just teaches them a little about us (founding year, colors, founders, nothing secret) and then they get to wear shirts that say "Gamma Phi Gammie Guys" on the front and the back says "...where being one of the girls (in this hugely girly font) is a good thing!" They were all really honored to be chosen and are guys who do everything for us from barbecuing food for recruitment in the dead of winter to constantly rehanging our crest (some a-hole keeps knocking it down) to unclogging our toilets. We love them! This last year we had 2 SigEps, 1 FarmHouse, and 1 Sinfonian.

Hmm...that sounds pretty cool. You go to Wayne State, right? I know a lot of the AGD's there so maybe they can get us info.
