Hmm... it seems a bit odd to me too, that no one would have a badge. AEPhi actually requires all sisters to own a badge throughout their college years; afterwards, you can give it to your sister, daughter, or granddaughter if she joins AEPhi. Oh well, guess every GLO has its own policy.

I just went to the Masters of Design link and was checking out the different types of badges. I am SO glad Chi Omega has a set badge! All of them have 14 pearls. You can upgrade to 14 diamonds, but that's it. And the diamond one is pretty much out of everyone's price range, so we get our pearl badge and are done. I can't imagine having to choose bewteen white gold/yellow gold, or rubies, or pearls, or sapphires etc., etc., etc.! I'd have spent 3 years picking out which one I wanted and never even have worn it in college!!!
I'm just the opposite - I kind of wish AEPhi's badge allowed for some variation. But no... letters in order on a gold bar, yellow gold, 27 pearls, period. The only customization is your initials on the back and the option of buying a guard.

On the one hand, it's nice to know that my badge is just the same as every other AEPhi's... but on the other hand, I would have liked white gold
