Gamma Phi Beta - tagline - Connect. Impact. Shine.

These two had long since been my favorite sorority taglines

I like verbs rather than adjectives for taglines.

Sigma Kappa
 
Sigma Kappa is unveiling a whole new identity this summer at our Collegiate Officers Training School. So, currently, our tagline is "Bringing Sisterhood to Life," but it won't be for long! I participated in one of the online surveys they conducted, "beta testing" two different taglines. I can say I LOVED one of them and was only mildly lukewarm about the other- I guess I'll have to wait until July to see if my favorite made the cut (or they could have gone a whole new direction, too!).

Open Motto: One Heart, One Way
Jewel: Pearl
Colors: Lavender and Maroon
Mascot: Dove and Heart
Flower: Wild Purple Violet (changed last year at Convention from simply Violet- you can't imagine the racous this caused- seriously!)

Kind of an aside, but when our new visual identity was unveiled in 2006, it was mentioned in the presentation that the agency that created the visual identity/marketing strategy for us -- Richard Harrison Bailey/The Agency (or RHB) in South Bend and Indianapolis -- had done similar work for over 25 fraternities and sororities. I wonder how many of the taglines in this thread (and the visiual identities of which they are usually part) were desgined by RBH.

And I know SWTXBelle asked about sororities, but since I've posted anyway, ours is: Among Men Harmony (colored as in my signature). It has proven to be really popular.

Like Alpha Chi Omega, we use the lyre as a symbol. The visual identity also included a new take on our lyre (the strings can be black or gold):

Alpha Omega Epsilon

Tagline: Friendship. Leadership. Professionalism.
Jewel: Blue Sapphire
Colors: Royal Blue, Silver, and White
Mascot: Dolphin
Flowers: We have three different flowers, one for each stage of membership. Candidates (our name for new members) have the white carnation. Actives have the white rose. Alumna have the calla lily.

We don't have an open motto either. Rather, we have the Ideals and Objectives. We do have a closed motto though.

Symbols/mascots: owl, key, fleur-de-lis. We kind of get an extra symbol because our flower is the iris. :-)

To build on what LucyKKG said...

Kappa Kappa Gamma
Motto: Secret! No open motto.
Tagline: A Tradition of Leadership.
Flower: Blue Iris
Jewel: Sapphire

I really like our tagline! Our Kappa Trainers and workshops always emphasize empowering women to be leaders, not just within our own chapters (ie officer positions) but in our personal lives and long after we graduate. You don't necessarily need to be elected to lead :)

Jewel: don't have one
Colors: Light Blue, Dark Blue, Gold
Official Mascot: Raggedy Ann, but we call her Ophia

The flower is technically the fleur-de-lis, which is most often represented by the iris. (I just checked the website, because I wasn't 100% positive on that).

The tagline "Tradition of Leadership" came about after surveying a number of members - both active and alumna - and combining their answers into one concise message. I also love it.

LatinaAlumna 06-03-2009 02:46 PM

Ours (Lambda Theta Nu) is Learn. Love. Lead. :)

epchick 06-03-2009 06:38 PM

As far as I know our tagline is still the same, so here is our info...

Alpha Phi

Tagline: Timeless Tradition, Contemporary Vision. Always Alpha Phi

Open Motto: Union hand in hand
Flowers: Lily of the Valley and Forget-me-not (blue and gold)
Colors: Bordeaux and Silver
Symbol: Ivy Leaf
Mascot: Phi Bear---named from the constellation Ursa Major
Constellation: Big Dipper (aka Ursa Major)

I do wish GLOs would stick to one or two mottos, shortened creeds, taglines, whatever. I think that it gets confusing if you start using too many . . . I'm still perfectly happy with Love. Labor. Learning. Loyalty, for us, although the Connect. Impact. Shine. thing has grown on me. But enough already!

Gusteau 06-03-2009 08:50 PM

I'm a big fan of "Love. Labor. Learning. Loyalty." It must be the alliteration.

AlphaFrog 06-04-2009 05:10 AM

I can't help but wonder if they got rid of the Imagine. Believe. Achieve. because it was too similar to mottos/taglines that other groups were already using.
