They mean the same thing, regardless of color.
It's like Sheila likes to say - respect the letters themselves, not the fabric sewed to a sweatshirt.

It's the principle of it. I realize the colors aren't the most important part of the organization, but they're still a part of it...kinda like being on the USA Olympic team and showing up wearing Russia's flag on your shirt. Yeah, you're on the USA team and you're in your uniform...but you're wearing someone else's flag because you think it's cuter. Doesn't scream "team spirit". It just seems like a little thing to do to be supportive...I mean I like skull and crossbones designs and I love anchors, I miss the color pink, I love the combination of blue and white, and I like pink and blue together...but I make the small sacrifice of not incorporating them into my sorority paraphenalia because they aren't mine...and dressing Alpha Gamma Delta in, say, Phi Mu's colors doesn't seem right.
