This seems a little strange... I'm wondering what the justification is for that rule? Are you no longer considered a member of your chapter, just of the sorority as a whole?
For the AOIIs, are officers recognized in any particular way? No guard = nowhere to put a dangle, so do you have recognition pins or something?
AFAIK, AEPhi has no rule about removing the guard once you've graduated. My guard is still attached, and I've met several alums (including national officers) who still wear their guards. I think my badge looks prettier with the guard.
I'm wondering, though... If you are allowed to keep your chapter guard, and you pin, say, your daughter with your badge, and she's in a different chapter - does she have to remove the guard or get a new one with her chapter letters?
lionlove, glad the lunch went well.
