My senior year of college, there was a new girl on campus walking around in Phi Mu's letters. She was spotted wearing them in class, at campus food establishments, pretty much everywhere. Since she transferred from another school, we assumed she had initiated in through another chapter. Our president and rush chair approached her to tell her she needed to go through the correct process of affiliating with us, but turns out--she wasn't a Phi Mu at all. She had a relative who was, though, and had taken one of her old jerseys. Liking the way our letters looked, she decided to invest in a couple of more jerseys.
Well, after the encounter with our president and rush chair, the girl did stop wearing our letters in public. That winter, though, IIKA had their annual Pike's Peak fundraiser, which was a week of sorority competitions. The final event was the Miss Pike's Peak contest--and the not-really-a-Phi-Mu- girl entered! She billed herself as "Miss Independent." For her talent competition, she recited a poem. It was one of those really bizarre ones like 'pansy's grow in the kitchen sink/yes, I hate my mother/she IS that pansy standing over the sink...WEIRD stuff!!!! I vividly recall her saying the poem was written by her favorite author of all time -- herself.
Very strange chick, that one.
