Very similar here at Bama as what Adpiucf said. Typical Chapter meetings are pin attire. About once a month we have "informal" chapter meetings with educational seminars and the like, so the dress is casual. Exec Committee meetings and informal standards hearings (now called council meetings) are casual, but Exec Board and Formal Standards Hearings are pin attire.

Currently we are conducting officer candidate interviews and we insist on pin attire for these as well. To me it's just like a job interview and should be treated as seriously. It also says alot about the candidate's personality as to what she feels is appropriate pin attire.

Funny though, the definition of pin attire has changed dramatically since I was in school nearly 20 years ago. Used to be that it was hose and heels. Slacks, no matter how dressy, were a no-no. Now it's pretty much anything goes except no denim (again no matter how dressy), flip flops, spaghetti straps or bare midriffs.
