Hey, when did you cross? I'm Spring '03.
Well, if you read the book Latino by Birth, Lambda by Choice written by Jesus Pena, Esq. he said that Lambda Theta Phi originated saluting. Perhaps yours are different, because yes, I do see you guys giving respect in some of the coming out shows i've seen (mainly frats, I haven't seen a sorority saluting in public beyond an especially long greeting to a member). but, saluting is a lot more than just an extra long greeting, it is about educating the public about who this person was, what they mean to us, and also adding in specific movements to many of those words. but, that is what they say about the origin of saluting, and since I am only Spring 2006, I don't know the whole story.
