I should add (in light of LucyKKG's post, where she mentioned that with her local "very few things had meaning") that the founders of Sigma Iota Phi did come up with things - letters (obviously), colors, a jewel, a symbol, and a badge and pledge ring - and did put some beautiful and well-thought-out meanings behind them. The meanings are all secret, and I consider my oath of secrecy still to be in force even though Sigma Iota Phi no longer exists. So it was a bit sad to put aside all those symbols when we became part of AEPhi, but we adopted AEPhi's no-less-beautiful symbols instead.
