*Please state where you are located (i.e. the University/College and state)
*State your sorority/fraternity
*Discuss dress code for any time you are on campus, but outside of a Greek function (normal school attendance and such)
*Discuss dress code for a function outside of your house, inside of your house, chapter meeting etc.
*Anything additional to share is most welcome!
I would love to see the differences across the U.S. and also your feelings.

Dress code for campus...not an official one, but usually a polo (VV, RL, SoPro, BB, etc) or an oxford and khaki or private school blue (navy? I guess) shorts (or pants depending on the time of year) and sperrys/wallabees/rainbows/boots. Croakies and whatever your pair of sunglasses are (costas, ray ban, maui jim, etc) If you're greek, this is the general dress because this is how we've always dressed. When I was a little kid I wore the same clothes (albeit smaller) that I do now. It creates a gap between the GDI's and the Greeks because you can easily tell who is Greek and who is not which is why we never wear "jerseys" and don't need party t-shirts.
Football games, pledges wear ties and a suitcoat. Most members wear ties and an oxford with some variation.
For chapter meetings, polo and pants. For ritual chapter, full dress (tie, button up, jacket, etc).
I have my own feelings regarding elsewhere but choose to keep them quiet in an effort to keep the thread on track. I don't care what other people wear, I know what looks good and what doesn't.
