How do you sign letters off to other Greeks?
 

.

I usually just sign it Sincerely or something like that.

One of the first emails I got from a GC'er was "In the Bonds". I didn't know if it was her sorority signature.

I got an email from a ZTA that was signed:

LITPB

That was cool with me

I usually use the same one I'd use for sisters....

Tau Delta Love and Mine eternal,
Tracey

Or

To Thine Own Self Be True,
Tracey

When I was writing to various orgs to try and organize a Badge Day I signed everything

In Panhellenic Spirit,
<name here>

When I send email reminders and agendas out to the other 60-70 people on the Greek Alumni Alliance I generally put either: Loyally or Sincerely. I don't think most of them would appreciate TLAM(Theta Love and Mine).

That's what I do, because all GLOs are bonds in some form or another :-).

On a formal letter, I tend to use Panhellenically or Fraternally.

I used to use "Interfraternally"

I normally use these for any correspondence - even for PMs here on GC! :)

I understand the others' use of "loyally", yet I only use it for written communication with my sisters :)

I think "Fraternally" would be appropriate, as would "Best Wishes," "Sincerely," "Respectfully," etc., for formal correspondence related to Greek Life with those outside your GLO.

If you're writing to a fellow Greek and it doesn't have to do with a Greek issue, don't sign "Fraternally." Use an appropriate formal closing, like the others I mentioned above.

Writing an informal note to another Greek, I might sign it "PanLove," "Greek Love" or use "Pi Love," "Pi Love and Mine," etc., depending on who I was talking to!

In ADPi Speak, I would close a formal letter to a sister with "Loyally." If it was to a sister I am close to I would close it "Love & Loyally" or "L&L." A informal letter to an ADPi would be closed with "Pi Love" or "Pi Love & Mine" (aka PLAM).

Good topic! No one seems to write letters anymore and it's good to think about this stuff! Makes me want to write to people! :)

I sign "Sisterly" to NPHC organizations. Everyone else gets a "Sincerely"

I would suggest avoiding "Fraternally." In some GLOs, that is the appropriate sign-off for brothers/sisters only. For example, although one sees variants of it, the traditional sign-off for correspondence between brothers in my Fraternity is:

Fraternally yours,
In FMA,
MysticCat

For the same reason, I would avoid "In the Bonds." While it is true, as JupiterTC said above, that all Greeks are in bonds of some sort, "In the Bonds" implies that the letter-writer and the receiver of the letter are bound by the same bonds -- the implication is "Yours in the Bonds of ABC." And again, "In the Bonds" in the traditional sign-off for use between members in some GLOs.

I would either go with something generic like "Sincerely" or "Very Truly Yours," or with something that cannot be confused with a GLO specific sign-off, such as "Yours in the Spirit of Interfraternal/Panhellenic Cooperation."
