Our Founders so disliked it that they commissioned jeweler J.F. Newman to come up with several new designs. The new badge was selected by Alpha on November 19, 1904. That badge was the one we all know, love, and wear proudly to this day.
I totally didn't know that, thanks! I love learning Alpha Gam facts

Ps. I can barely even imagine what it would look like, I actually had to draw it to figure it out.
