Name your GLO
Alpha Gamma Delta
Describe your badge and new member pin
Badge = a monogram of the Greek letters, with the Delta plain, the Gamma chased, and the Alpha may be decorated either plain, with 14 pearls, or with a diamond and pearls. Our International President wears one decorated with 14 diamonds.
NM pin = a shield of red, buff, and green. Described heraldically its: on a shield, parti per pale or and vert, a fess gules.
Where can you wear your badge? (does it have to be over the heart, is a suit jacket ok or does it have to be on the blouse/shirt, if you're wearing other pins (like an Order of Omega pin) do they have to be below your badge, etc)
Collegiates must wear their badge over the heart in the traditional manner. Alumnae may wear their pins in the traditional way, on a suit lapel, or on a collar.
Any other honor pins or men's fraternity pins must be worn lower and to the left of the badge.
Do you require new members to wear their pins at all times?
No, but you are strongly encouraged to do so as often as you like. Of course, not on sweatshirts or ripped jeans, etc.
Can you attach anything to your badge? (chapter guard, etc)
We can attach a chapter guard. I've also seen some pretty Crest guards. They can be ordered plain, chased, or with pearls. Alumnae often wear their Honors of Epsilon Pi instead (see below).
Can you use a badge buddy?
I've never heard of one before, so I'm not sure! I'm guessing no.
Can you make your badge into a pendant or ring?
Yes! We have special coverters you can buy, once you're an alumna.
What other official jewelry does your GLO have? (president's ring, award pins, mother's/father's pins, sweetheart pins, etc)
We have TONS of offiical jewelry--I especially love our Mother's Pins, the Rose Drop Bracelet, and the Foundation Pendant given to the senior with the Highest GPA. The other big official jewelry are our Honors of Epsilon Pi, which are given to alumnae who serve the Fraternity. I think there are 8, and the longer you serve, the higher the honor. The top honor, the Circle of Epsilon Pi, is so rarely given that less than 20 women in our nearly 100 years have received it.
Edited for bad formatting!
