So funny that you started this thread!
I just sent in my order for my ADPi badge.
When I joined Alpha Delta Pi, I did it as an alumna initiate (all 3 levels of initiation on one day, yikes!), and bought the basic badge because I didn't know how involved I'd be with the sorority and I didn't want to spend more than the $63 for the plain badge if I wasn't going to stay active.
It's now our five year anniversary, and I'm getting out of grad school in May. I still go to campus for Homecoming and Founders' Day, and I'll be joining the Naperville Alumnae Association in August, since I will finally have Tuesday nights free again (yay, no more grad classes!).
So I got the mid-level pin-- alternating synthetic sapphires (points and center stone of sides) and pearls (other two stones per side). I also ordered a plain gold guard, plus went to GiftMart and ordered a webmaster dangle (since I do run the thing...)
It's supposed to be 4-6 weeks... I can't wait! I know it won't be around in time for formal or Founders' Day, but it'll be around for alumnae assoc. stuff in fall and for Homecoming!
Oh, and I am *so* jealous of LXA and other fraternities where the plain badge is available gold-plated for $9 and the crown or jeweled stuff starts around $65.
