Designing Your Own
The "Greek Favorites Poll" thread got me thinking...
If you were were starting up your own GLO, what symbols etc. would you choose to represent it? (Colors, Mascot, Symbol, Flower, Jewel, Philanthropy, Motto) |
Eta Chi Upsilon (don't ask :D)
Colors: Purple and Turquoise Mascot: Parrot Symbol: Pyramid Flower: Fresia Jewel: Diamond Phil: Something that supports women |
You guys just have to see ariesrising's sorority houses and the symbols she has selcted for them. I think it would be cool to be able to write a ritual for each one incorporating all her symbolism!

Speaking of, where has she been??
Damn miss her here!:( Design my own? Hell already did that! God I do love my Local Badge and Pledge Pin, My Coat of Arms and Flag! Only ones who has seen mey BX Bade/Pin is Brother Jono and The Local guys and International! But Love LXA More! BX for 9 Months, LXA for 36 years! Check out the LXA Coat of Arms, it is something to look at and study! Oh, Beta Chi: Color-Blue and White, no mascot except "Zorba" a cur dog, gems- none, Coat of Arms-symbols: Clasped Hands, Sun Rising, Open Book, and Justice Scales. Crossed Sabers within a crossing Sash, and a Knights Helmut atop the Sheild. Flag, Blue with White Border and Letters. Pledge Pin: Oval with Crossed Sabers in Black on Blue. Active Badge: Maltese Cross of Blue and White with Black Oval With BX in Gold in the Center. Damn, I wonder if I could have started a National?!:) |
Kappa Pi
I have everything started for it, I was going to start it before I found Beta Sigma Phi.
Kappa Pi Colors: Dusty Pink and Purple Auxillary Colors: Red White and Blue (note they also form the Pink and Purple :)) Jewel: Diamond Symbol: Star Mascot: Bald Eagle Flower: Pink and Purple Hyacynth Phil: Didnt have one, it would be a service org with many Phils, probobly something local like Passages Motto: Imagine Song: Imagine by John Lennon I have a crest, but its on my computer... Its a sheild with a bald eagle in his one hand holding an olive branch in its right claw and the hyacynth in the left. He is facing the viewers right. Above him in the top point of the sheild is a star, on the viewers left and right are the letters Kappa and Pi respectively. Below the eagle is the sunset with the word IMAGINE in script written upsidedown and backwards (mirror image) under it. The sun is setting on a green field. At the base of the sheild is Lambda Upsilon Kappa Epsilon and the roman numerals (I will add this when I remember). The part of the sheild that the eagle is on is pink around the sun and fades to a deep purple/indigo by the star. The whole crest is full of symbolism and so are the symbols. Its really beautiful. I have ritual written too... so if anyone is looking for an org to start... youre more than welcome to have my help :) I would love to see KPis started somewhere!!!! :):):) |
Ariesrising is still around... I received a PM from her a few days ago.

Tell Her to get Back on Site! Other Than Falling in Love With HER, I miss her on Line!:)
Damn, nothing but FooseBall on TV, Might Do my Shrimp Dinner Early! Had Dawgs last Night, Out With the old, Doing Shrimp Today, In with the New!:) |
doing it!
Actually it's not my GLO but I am getting to help a local get their act together and help wirte ritual. I also guided them when picking colors, mascots & stuff & help research the meanings etc. It's very cool and very rewarding!
Name: Alpha Delta Zeta (ADZee's) The meaning will be explained in the ritual-I haven't been told. I probably won't be. colors: Navy & Hunter (friendship/new life; Night Sky/ Mother Earth) Symbol: shooting star & dagger Mascot: angel Motto: not done yet-ideas anyone? Philanthropy: two-Environmental causes (Recycling/adopt a highway-nothing too political) and something to do with domestic violence/DFACS Flower: Tulip-because the are in season in the spring and fall symbolizing the different ages of people in the group and the different seasons of one's life.(I think-still needs to be finalized) Motto, grip, crest (almost decided to not have a crest), password, creed, ritual, badge-still being developed. Flower is up for debate as well-everyone has a favorite. I think they've decide more what to NOT have than what to have (OUT are carnations and roses-so many other orgs already use them.) The pledges wear a pin with the sorority ribbons on it, the sisters wear angel pins with the ribbons so far until they get a jeweler or whatever. Then they hope to have a sisters badge and let the pledge pin be the angel. |
Oh No!
Kappa Pi is an international Art Fraternity. Maybe they aren't incorporated/trademarked yet?:confused:

I checked the best I could I couldnt find anyone using that name

For me, I would choose...
Colors: Wine Red and Midnight Blue Mascot: Panther Symbol: Star Flower(s): Red and White Roses Jewel: Pearl Philanthropy: Operation Outreach: USA Motto: "Strength through Sisterhood" |
Colors: Indigo, black, and silver
Mascot: Black cat Symbol: Not sure Flower: Iris Jewel: Tanzanite and diamond Motto: Dream not of today (stolen from my local ;) ) Philanthropy: A program that helps either battered women, orphans, or children in foster care. In addition, chapters would be encouraged to choose a local homeless shelter or soup kitchen to support/volunteer at. New member pin: Whatever the symbol is, in silver. New members would also receive indigo, black, and silver ribbons, that they can wear when not in pin attire. Active's badge: Would incorporate tanzanites and diamonds, and be set in silver. Now all I need are some letters. Wish I'd studied Greek :D An idea for Blue Violet - instead of picking just one flower, how about a bouquet of 3-5 different flowers? Having a bunch of different flowers can represent diversity, and each flower might also represent something on its own. Just an idea :) |
Colors: red and gold
Mascot: a cardinal Symbol: the Celtic trinity knot Flower: white rose with red streaks (I have actually seen these) Jewel: ruby and pearl Motto: Focus not on what you are, but on what you can become. Philanthropy: Young Life! New member pin: silver trinity knot Active's badge: trinity knot engraved with the letters and set with rubies and pearls |
Delta Lambda was a local I helped found last spring at my other school before I transferred. Our symbols included:
Colors: Red, Blue, Green Mascot: Lamb Flower: white daisy Jewel: Ruby Motto: Remember the past, live for the future Philanthropy: programs that helped women |
