I know what I'm about to say is petty, but I have seen it happen so here it is..
I have seen girls who were very small in t-shirts and hats and even bibs (which just shows how young they were) that say I'm a future Delta, AKA ect. (I usually see these shirts at events where the little girl's mother is wearing a sorority shirt also)A picture was taken and forgotten. When that girl gets college age, she chooses to affiliate with another sorority and the picture resurfaces.
I've also seen little girs get harrased for wearing "letters" in a very innocent way. For example, I was in a city where the local Delta chapter had a Betty Shabazz Academy (a program that many Delta Chapters do to help steer young girls, middle school age in the right direction). The members of the Academy were harrased for wearing the greek symbols on a t-shirt that in all likelyhood was given to them by the members of the Delta chapter for participating in the program. That's a bit overboard.
