That's especially cool, as is seeing the pictures of the Japanese-American sorority. I also like how all the chapter presidents had to take portraits wearing gowns!

The other thing that struck me was how in the descriptions of the various national sororities they mentioned the north/south divide. Like Chi Omega was described as a sorority that was founded to bridge the north/south divide, and ZTA was described as founded to fulfill the need for more sororities in the south. I thought that was interesting.
