Thanks for posting this one. I swear I've seen this but I can't remember where.

I searched online to find the ones I posted. I love the old, vintage photos so much!

I love the old photos also. The one you posted, I think I saw it in Frater Lawrence Ross' book The Divine Nine.

Tri Delta Pansy Breakfast at USC----1957
 
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r...eakfast4-1.jpgThis was a photo from the Los Angeles Times from the Pansy Breakfast which was held in the front garden at the Tri Delta chapter house at USC. Greek women were guests at the breakfast and announced their engagement by stepping through the Pansy Ring. Pictured here is Tri Delta, Judy Green, who wore a long white wedding gown in this photo from 1957. Judy was also a Homecoming Princess at SC.

The event was covered by the Times and was one of the city's social events in that era.

This chapter originated the Pansy Breakfast. It is now held by chapters across the country as a spring event honoring graduating seniors.

The USC Digital Library archives have a bunch of great retro sorority photographs.

Just enter 'sorority' in the search field.

This is probably true of many digital archives of universities with strong tradition ties to their Greek community

A lot of those pictures are in this thread, I should know I used the USC Digital library to find them and put them here :)

You have to wonder about yourself when you check out the Retro Pictures to make sure you're not IN any of them!

KillarneyRose 10-06-2012 02:42 PM

LOL, I know, Honey! And I looked at those 1989 Alpha Chi gals upthread and thought, "They look pretty normal to me!"

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought that! LOL!

I looked at the 1991 Illini Greek Week one and felt instantly at home with the look and feel of the group. :)

From the Corolla (Bama) online archives:

Charter members of Eta Chapter of ADPi (still known at the time as Alpha Delta Phi), 1907. "Pi Kappa Kappa" in the composite is the name of the local.

"W. Hibbler" = Wildie Churchill Hibbler, Katie Couric's paternal grandmother.

It's late (or early) and I can't sleep, so I've decided to contribute to this awesome thread. The following images are from "Panther Tracks", the University of Pittsburgh yearbook from 1987. Enjoy!

^^^^^ Those look totally normal to me (graduated from college in '87). I do feel a need to point out that we called that hair cut a bi-level, not a mullet. And we never said anything about business in the front and party in the back. Bi-level. It definitely helped tame the perm and keep it away from the face while giving you lovely height in the bangs at the same time.

AZTheta 10-21-2012 10:34 AM

KR: the HAIR. the HAIR! I somehow have gone my entire life with no perm, ever. Yikes.
