Every chapter approaches Lil gifts differently. I know IN Gamma spoils their Lil's. New members not only receive these gifts but GA (Guardian Angel for the non Pi Phi chatters...they get a gift a week) gifts as well. As VP Social (aka Pledge Educator) I spent a lot of time talking with our graduate consultant, and she told me how other Pi Phi chapters do it. She told me to consider cutting back the gifts our new members receive. Other chapters have mandatory things the girls will receive and that's it! I thought about it for our chapter and quickly dismissed it. (So yes Jess, you don't have to worry about that! You can spoil your Lil all you want.
) I know our chapter is way too into traditions and gift giving.

PS. Wish me luck girls! I'm leaving tomorrow for IL, which is a 4+ hour drive for me! I'm kinda nervous but excited for the independence. Have a great Memorial Day weekend everyone!
