Love reading this! I have my local scroll number, chapter and nickname on my windbreaker, while my blueberry (satin jacket) has my name, nickname, class, semester pledged... damn thing reads like a resume. I break it out once in a while, which kinda makes me a "Brother Elvis" - occasional sighting of the letters, but actives can't confirm who I am. Pledged back in the Fall of 1996, during my 1st stint as an undergrad.

I was given the nickname of Wonder Woman, and my Big ("Rocky") gave me two reasons for it.

1) She had dated the older brother of the guy I was dating at the time - she told me if I could deal with both of them, I had to be some kind of WW.

2) My twin sister pledged the semester before I did, making me a legacy and in a precarious position since the newest brothers tended to come down hardest on the pledges. She was also dating an active brother. Rocky told me that if I knew what I was getting into and was willing to take it on, she was proud of me for having the guts to stick it out.

Down the road, I became part of the rechartering team for our chapter, which was a pretty good feeling! I also got to be part of the rechartering at Johns Hopkins :D

Line Nicknames
 

Well my lines name is 5 .F.O.L.D. my personal name is Beauty. My pers told me my name was beauty because far beyond physical beauty I exhibited a beautiful nature about everythng i did even on line.

My linename is "Motown???". Motown-Because I can sing. The ??? at the end is because I asked alot of questions while on line.

I thought I did this already, but I didnt....

My line name is oACEsis and my alias is Amazing GrACE :-)

Hmmm, let me think. This means you must be on the Basketball team and likely to be drafted by the WNBA after graduation, right? :)

I love your line name!!!:)

My nickname is "old Man River" because I was the oldest to pledge on my line. I have also been called "Granddad and Father Time," but I usually will have Doc Holliday as a name because it was given to me by a DJ in Jackson, and it's also my alter ego....lol.

I have two line names. The first one is Token because I am the only black person in my Big's family. My second one was giving to me by my Grandbig it is Mizz. Poptartz because I was never seen without a poptart (or two). And I mean Never lol I am Lucky Number 7 on my line!! I wear my name and number on all my par lol
