Non greeks wearing non letter sorority gear

Last I checked, the colors pink and green weren't copyrighted (ask the DZs and AKAs) and neither is the turtle.

If she bought it off eBay with some kind of intent to join DZ in the future, then that's her issue and really none of your business.

But since the bracelet didn't have the Delta Zeta letters on it, I don't see why there should be any concern.

I like pink and green and turtles, as do many other people.

kddani 11-10-2004 08:01 PM

The pink and green combo is really "in" right now, noticed that this weekend shopping.

Like OTW, I don't think it's any big deal and isn't really any of your business.

If it doesn't have Greek letters then there's nothing wrong with it. Pink and green are two colors that go well together and turtles are just cute little animals. The girl might not have even known what Delta Zeta is or what their colors or mascot are. Just because something is a sorority's symbol or color, doesn't mean any one else not in that sorority can't wear it. Thos rhinestone anchor necklaces were pretty popular at my school last year, the AST's didn't care that non-AST's were wearing them.

KSUViolet06 11-10-2004 08:58 PM

I echo everyone else on this. My friend has a diamond studded anchor and she's not a DG, she just happens to think it's really cute. My aunt has a red necklace with a silver elephant and she's not a Delta Sigma Theta. If there aren't any letters, then I see no reason to think about it./

Deltazeta4ever 11-10-2004 09:40 PM

As a Delta Zeta, I have no problem with this as long as our letters weren't on the bracelet. Actually, the bracelet sounds cute!! I might get one myself!

Zetagymnast 11-10-2004 09:59 PM

I would agree with everyone. No GLO has copyrighted certain colors and symbols. As long as there are no letters there should be no problem.

OMG if I see someone with teddy bear stuff I'm gonna put the smack down.

Seriously though, I don't think it's a problem. If she starts wearing exclusively pink and green and turtle stuff, I might be a bit concerned that she's wacky or stalkerish, but otherwise I think it is completely fine. Just means that according to DZs, she has great taste!

I have a teddy bear necklace somewhere at home and like 20 teddy bears on my bed. Should I be worried?

Uh oh, considering I actually collect teddy bears. Are all of the Alpha Phi's going to come after little ole me? :D

I've got to agree with everyone else. Don't worry about it.

Yah, don't tell Jill..........Don't want her smacking me down for the house full of Boyd's bears that she probably didn't notice the last time she was at my house (and will be here next weekend).

Ditto for the AGD 'perps who rock the rastafari red, buff, and green.

Camile Velasco I'm talking to you!

Taualumna 11-11-2004 12:23 AM

That shouldn't be a problem. A women's clothing chain was selling cute tanks and sweatshirts with tiny little squirrels back in September.

LOL, she'll have to fight me to the death then :D I love my teddy bears, and if they're as important to Alpha Phis as they are to me, then the women of Alpha Phi are darned special indeedy.

There's just something about a girl and her teddy bear, no matter how young or old!

Tell me about it. My non-greek friend who is getting married picked out pink and green as her colors. First words out of my mouth, "Oh, those are DZ colors."

And those traffic lights that are all AGD wanna bes! The nerve of them! :D

kddani 11-11-2004 09:13 AM

uh oh, the SDTs, Alpha Phis, and KDs are all gonna be battling it out over the teddy bears!:eek: hehe

KillarneyRose 11-11-2004 10:40 AM

I wouldn't worry about it :)

adpiucf 11-11-2004 10:42 AM

But I thought God created all the animals for the specific purpose of being sorority mascots!

Don't forget the AXiDs! The teddy bears are OURS!!! :D

kddani 11-11-2004 10:55 AM

being that the turtle isn't even an official mascot of DZ anyway, it certainly doesn't matter.

<--- using her knowledge recently gained from another thread, never know it wasn't the official mascot

33girl 11-11-2004 11:01 AM

OK, between the traffic lights and adpiucf's post I am dying over here. And it's made me wonder why rasta colors and traffic light colors are the same. :p

adpiucf 11-11-2004 11:05 AM

Let's hear it for the mollusk!
 
I think we need to start a new sorority where our mascot is...
THE MOLLUSK.

Often overlooked, the mollusk exhibits many fine traits that would stand up well in a sorority's desired list of attributes!

If you see anyone collecting sea shells on the beach, wearing mother-of-pearl or skin diving, collecting of any kind, please explain they are in violation for being in possesion of The Mollusk.

For 33: Get up, stand up.... stand up for your rights.... ;)

kddani 11-11-2004 11:10 AM

mollusk
 
um, no, i think not. WAY too close to my KD's nautilus shell. We'll kick the asses of anyone who even tries. Seahorses? Forget it! Jellyfish? No way! Lobsters, nuh uh. Bring it!

*disclaimer* this post in no way is a serious threat that KDs are going to kick anyone's behinds

smiley21 11-11-2004 12:04 PM

my whole bathroom has a beach theme, so there are nautilus shells everywhere....i feel so guilty :(



;)

adpiucf 11-11-2004 12:12 PM

Bad, bad ADPi!

ETA: I love any excuse to call smiley21 an ADPi :)

tunatartare 11-11-2004 01:53 PM

Do starfish count? I have a starfish garland in my room. Is that acceptable?

indygphib 11-11-2004 04:09 PM

And those of you who are into celestial stuff...look out! Don't even think about adding any crescent moons to your collections!:)

Are we allowed to go outside when there is a crescent moon? I'd hate to be non-Panhellenic!

All those guilty of owning anyone else's mascot will go to the third level of sorority perpetrator hell.

P.S. Quit stealing my mascot hoochies! Don't be like those evil Gamma Phis stealing Phi Mu's pink carnation.

Anyone kill a bumblebee lately? Prepare to face my wrath.

Am I still going to to to the third level of sorority perpetrator hell even if I own several teddy bears since the teddy bear is also SDT's mascot? ;)

Don't worry about me. I am allergic to bees as well as anything else that stings. I avoid them at all costs, so you won't catch me killing your mascot? :D ;)

Glitter650 11-11-2004 09:31 PM

I doubt anyone owns or wears sphinx stuff... so I think you are all pretty safe from crazy Phi Sigs getting mad at you for sportin' your Gold and Blue Sphinx chain you got last christmas. ;)

kddani 11-11-2004 09:32 PM

and all you beotches getting married and putting white roses in your bouquets... beware, because i'll bust in on your ceremony and make sure that I object to the marriage because your punk ass is ripping off my sorority's flower!!!
