Which pledge pin is the one to the immediate southeast of Tri-Delta?

I noticed that! Upside down badges -- reminds me of some of the non-Greek sellers of badges we see on eBay!

This is so cute! I like the drawings of the pledge pins.

During WWII, can you imagine how uncertain the times were?!

This is so awesome! Thanks for posting this, NutBrnHair!

Ooh, this is cool. I just love old documents like these.

This is awesome as an IU alum!

Love this!

So cool to see something from my school. Funny that my organization's badge is upside down. Thanks for posting.

So did DZ not have a house at that stage or were they just super excellent budgeters?

1940's Dues in 2013 Dollars
 

I was interested in seeing how the 1940's costs compared to 2013, so I applied the appropriate inflation coefficient (16.40) from Dollartimes.com. I looked at new initiate first semester costs and the costs for subsequent semesters living In House and out of House. Very enlightening to see the 1940's costs in 2013 adjusted dollars.
