I've had them in my posession for little under a year now, so I've seen them all up close. I've also looked the names up online before now anyways. That their names are on the pendants is of little matter - and partly the point, no? My point was that herff jones uses their names in transliterated english.

If you had a seeing-eye dog, you could name it somethign that begins with an E! This is exactly like throwing up handsigns - what is hidden in plain sight is the most fun...

If a non-brother wanted to put in a little effort, they could easily find out our ritual.

I put a lot of effort into trying to find even a smidgeon of info on the contents of our ritual before and after initiation, but to almost no avail (cough cough - yahoo group). With the exception of the coke heads you referenced in a later post, I do have quite a bit of faith in my other brothers in abiding in the oaths they took...
