I realize this is far snarkier than I usually am, and if I could figure out a non-snarky way to write it, I would. From a logical standpoint, I just can't see why the letters themselves are verboten, while writing it out is okay.
I'm with you all the way on this one, SWTX. I love it when a Chi Omega chapter uses this argument and I just say, "What does their pledge (read: new member) pin say?"
