About paraphanalia, 'nalia, perry, or regalia...

I think most of the people at my school just called their shirts (and other wearable stuff) 'letters'.. kind of a slang term.

But I know that a lot of chapters referred to this stuff as regalia, also. (Mine did a lot). Like you woud hear the chapter prez say "Don't forget to wear your regalia on Tuesday" or something like that.

I never heard of perry or 'nalia until I started visiting here

I think it probably is just a regional thing. So, for the record, my school was in Columbus, OH. We had locals and a few PFA chapters. (There were some city-wide chapters of NPHC orgs, although I don't know what terms they used).
