I am curious if the old heavy jeweled badges were more for alumni or current members?

Thoughts?

I can't speak for all the NPC sororities, but Delta Zetas are required to order their own Badge even if they don't choose to wear it in favor of a relative's passed down Badge.

As for the heavy jeweled badges vs. the plainer ones, I think it is all a matter of what the sister or brother likes and can afford at the time.

Anyone else care to weigh in?
