A Phi Mu's pin has her initials, the date she was initiated, and her chapter initials. Nationals retains "ownership" of the badges -- it's noted *everywhere* that a Phi Mu does not actually own her pin, she's simply given the privledge to wear it.

Which is kind of interesting, because according to all that, I should let my spouse/children know AND put it in my will that I'd like my badge sent back to Nationals. But truly considering it... I'd love it if some great-great-granddaughter of mine was able (and interested) in wearing it.

Are fraternity pins the same way? Would a father pass on his badge to his son?
