I guess I shouldn't post pictures of my Sigma Chi event shirts. . .

I've got no problem with whatever your chapter chooses to do - I totally respect your right to do as you wish regarding your letters. I am a big fan of traditions and upholding them. I do think you can do it without being critical of those who chose to do things differently.
Our new members wear our letters from day one - it is the crest and the badge which are reserved for initiated members, which I think makes them that much more special. But to each his own - GLOs are great because they differ in all kinds of interesting ways.
