It seems strange to me to hear that some schools refer to anyone that pledged the same semester as them as their sands, regardless of the organization. When I pledged, the only people that we called our sands were our line sisters that actually crossed the sands with us. Of course that was in 1987, I realize that most organizations probably no longer physically cross burning sands, nor should they (we shouldn't have been doing it either). I just thought that the term sands was reserved for the most intimate of relationships, at least that is how it was in my day.

On the west coast we also use Sands for our linesisters and those who crossed the same year as our paralle sands or DiSTance Sands. I've also heard of ships and shippies and back and front (some VA sorors).
