You are correct, polarpi! Now you think of a question........

What are the four guideposts listed in our Creed?

*Looking at the framed Creed to the left of the computer*

My turn! Recite the creed of Alpha Delta Pi. For bonus points, tell us about how we came to have our creed!

The Creed of Alpha Delta Pi

I BELIEVE in Alpha Delta Pi. I BELIEVE that my sorority is more than a ritual or a symbol; that it is a way of life. I BELIEVE that the principles established by our founders in 1851 are enduring attributes, exemplifying the highest ideals of Christian womanhood. I BELIEVE that our motto “We Live For Each Other,” expresses the true spirit of fraternity; and that by living this motto my life will be enriched by true friendships and by unselfish service to mankind. I BELIEVE that the privilege of membership in Alpha Delta Pi brings the responsibility to do my best in whatever I undertake, always remembering that leadership requires confidence tempered with humility and courage blended with tolerance. I BELIEVE that I must strive to become a well-balanced person by following the dictates of the four points symbolized by our diamond-shaped badge: first, strengthening my own character and personality; second, watching my attitudes toward my fellow-beings; third, recognizing the value of high educational standards; and fourth, developing faith and loyalty. I BELIEVE that these four guide-posts, guarded by the stars and friendly hands clasped in the Adelphean bonds of fellowship, will lead me to achieve a rich and useful life.

As I remember, this was pretty much the keynote speech back in the 1940's (1948?) when Mrs. Stanard was Grand President.

Oh, well, I was trying to find a picture of Mary Esther Van Akin, who was Grand Vice President for years, but couldn't. She was pretty cool, especially for her age!!

My question is: It is incorrect for an alumna to wear her Alpha Delta Pi pin:

a) As a ring.

b) On an unbuttoned blazer lapel.

c) On a pendant.

I would guess b

And you would be right! Go ahead with a new question! :)
