my cousin goes to tulane, and i won't say what chapter, but in ALL of her "going out" pictures, she and her sisters are wearing various lettered pins with ribbon underneath, while drinking. that seems crazy to me because it is definitely drinking with letters, and i know that her GLO most definitely does not allow it... but does the pin thing vary by chapter? or is this just a tulane thing? i find it very strange. it's almost like some kind of marketing thing gone very wrong.

I am from New Orleans and I can remember going to Madigan's a few years ago and members of a sorority were there and they were wearing some "I heart XYZ" buttons. I think it is the culture of the Greek Life down there. It is probably not endorsed per say; meaning I'm sure they know better than to do that. However in their defense I will say this, they were drinking but they were behaving like ladies. I don't condone it at all but I guess sometimes things happen and people do things that do reflect poorly on our NPC organizations. I'm sure many college students wear their letters out at Spring Break....the best thing to do I think is to educate our members about when to wear letters and not to wear letters.
