Wow. A few years ago, the Alpha Gamma Delta Foundation campaign leading up to the Centennial Convention included a video that included the following:

"A single grain of sand...becomes a Pearl of great worth."

Wear the pearls if it makes you comfortable and you enjoy wearing them. Just don't go around saying, "I wear pearls because I know its your symbol and I love EVERYTHING about XZY" or something like that.

The official jewel of Delta Zeta is the diamond, but we've also got pearls in our badge.

If a PNM's signature piece is, let's say, an emerald encrusted nautilus shell brooch pierced with a gold dagger, or a charm bracelet that alternates green and pink turtles with golden lamps, then it might be a little sketchy.

A strand of pearls is always acceptable. Good luck with recruitment!

The pearl isn't my sorority's official jewel but a lot of our girls (including myself) love to wear pearls! I think pearls are classy and if it's something that you wear everyday then go for it!

I think you'll see a bunch of other PNMs wearing pearls as well--a strand of pearls is such a classic choice. :)

SDT has pearls on our badge as well :)

co-sign. Actives are keenly aware of symbols and not so worked up about jewels.
