CutiePie, thanks for sharing that wonderful fact about AOII with everyone! Where other groups use a crest, we use our beautiful rose. Back when I was in college, the college bookstore sold something that looked suspiciously like shot glasses (remember, I pledged 20 years ago!) with a fake AOII shield/crest thing on them. They wondered why we never bought them up with all the other sorority and fraternity items sold like hotcakes.
Back when I was in college forever ago, a local fast food restaurant right next to campus had a wooden plaque on a back wall with all of the crests of the NPC, NIC and NHPC groups at Louisville. I loved looking at everyone's crests (and the greeks were always sitting in and around that booth!) but our rose was so distinctive surrounded by everyone else's crests. Too cool!
Once in a while you'll see some goofy 'shield' looking thing with AOII in the middle on E-bay. Ugh.
Christin
ETA: Thought it was worth noting how long ago I went to college. I'd guess you can't purchase items today that look suspiciously like shot glasses with any reference to a GLO.
