We wear white while most other chapters wear black. This was really contraversial several years ago when the (former) Bama Admin pushed recruitment beyond Labor Day. This may sound silly to some, but it's the South. White after Labor Day?
We had a chapter debate/vote on whether we should change. We decided to keep it just because it made us unique amongst the other chapters on campus. Fortunately for this reason and so many others that are far more important, we were happy when recruitment returned to Aug the week before school.
