Badge Day - 2015
 

My annual column - http://www.parispi.net/opinion/colum...b0c1e985b.html


"While it is true that this has resulted in Greek women being well represented in the halls of power on the local, state and national levels (e.g., Condoleeza Rice, Alpha Chi Omega; Elizabeth Dole, Delta Delta Delta; Kay Bailey Hutchinson, Pi Beta Phi; Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Alpha Epsilon Phi; and many others), it is ultimately just as important that women have these skills for every aspect of their lives, from running a household to running a PTA committee meeting."

Well-said!

Excellent! Thank you! Love badge day and hope all greek women no matter the organization will wear their badges, pins or letters proudly.

Excellent as usual, Belle! I plan to go to a Panhellenic Fundraiser, followed by an Alpha Delta Pi Alumnae Association meeting!

Very excited to wear my commemorative 50th Convention pink gold Quill as a grateful member of Alpha Xi Delta!

I love Badge Day! I primarily work from home, but Badge Day is always on the one day I teach all day (college adjunct).

I'm excited to wear my badge this year! After Christmas, I ordered the dangles I qualified for over the years but never got, and I'm hoping they come in time to wear that day!

Enjoy your annual column and like to share it with friends - thank you so much for sharing it.

Lovely! I am looking forward to Badge day this year.

I'm self-employed right now, but I'm tempted to wear a letter sweatshirt to my next Fairfield County Chorale rehearsal (we rehearse on Mondays). I may be laughed at, as I'm pushing 30 (I've pushed it nearly all the way to 40 lol), but my age doesn't make me any less an AEPhi. And who knows what business connections I may make simply because I'm Greek?

I'm in the final year of my 20s and I still wear letter frequently. You're an AEPhi for life - wear your letters with pride!

I'm excited that badge day and DPhiE founders day are both in March! More reasons to wear my badge this month!

I'm going to be REALLY ANNOYED if my district has a snow day tomorrow and I can't wear a badge :(

I'm in the Connecticut Choral Society (our rehearsals are also on Monday). I'll either wear my letters (I'm pushing 50 and I still wear them) or my badge.

One of the first time I wore my letters, our director asked if I was a Gamma Phi (I resisted the snarky reply as to why else I would be wearing letters). He told me that while an undergrad (either Drexel or Duquesne, I can't remember), he was a "Moon Man." Very cool!

I'm planning to share your article on my FB page today. Very well written.
I work from home, as well, and am NOT in badge attire but I will find a way to honor my fraternity tomorrow. I love my badge and all that stands for.
