What was happening with the nametag situation -- or what do they think might happen -- that prompted this rule? Just curious. If it's a sensitive matter that need not be discussed, that's okay.

I've never heard of any situation happening since I've been here and that's almost 10 years this August. I could see though that back in the day when hot boxing and dirty rushing were big that a PNM would be asked to take her nametag off so the Gamma Chi's wouldn't know she was a PNM during the party so more girls could talk to her and perhaps even show her around the house.

However, it would be obvious who is a PNM and who is an active member because of the outfits and clothes worn by the active members during recruitment now.
