I can't speak for Tom, but I'd like to think our actives are wearing letters at least every Friday and a few more days in between, and wearing their badges at all semi-formal events and others when they're nicely dressed.
We alumni have fewer opportunities to wear the badge and even fewer to wear a jersey (it can look silly when you're 50!) and sadly is appropriate a very limited number of days during the year.
But the alumni aren't the ones rushing or upholding the reputation of our respective organizations: it's the actives!
They are the ones who plan for the future, are full of fire, give us the current reputation, and should be proud to wear the letters and badges and promote themselves!
As an alumnus, I do what I can. But what I wear isn't really going to make a big difference one way or the other.
The actives are the ones on campus, and it's up to them. That's the way I see it.
