I just simply believe that when you are done with college and working....it is a little silly to wear Greek letters......and I also think it makes you look less mature. You are an adult now, time to dress like one. Same goes for license plates, stickers, key chains, etc. Like I said before, the only think I will probably have out that people can see would be my certificate of initiation in a nice frame.......hanging next to my undergrad and law school graduation certificates.
Brother, while I agree with your thoughts and beliefs, I think of a larger situation.
Ever day, I see people wearing Collage hats, shirts, sweats et al. And most of them are well out of school.
Then you have those who are paying, thru the nose in many cases, to be walking advertisements. Nike, GAP, A&F, any Team et al.
So, I really to not see a major problem if someone cares to wear something personally close and personal to them.
Or have a sticker or two on their car.
But that is just my OVHO/POV.
Should add that I have met both Brothers and fellow Greeks either because I was wearing a shirt or they were.
