Senureset I,
That was my first thought as I seen the colors, but I wanted to make sure because I think it could also have been Sigma Nu with the Gold and Black (I think). The reason that Alpha Phi Alpha popped into my mind first is because I attend North Carolina A & T State University, which I am sure that you have heard of...LOL, so naturally since I attend an HBCU; A-Phi-A was my first guess.
Oh and to the brothers that posted some suggestions on the tie-tac, I really do appreciate the help. I guess im just gonna have to see what works out best and experiment a little bit.
Oh and Tom, I believe that you can purchase the 'official' tie bar from Herff-Jones (Which I know you LOVE
) I think it runs like $40.
