This is kinda what I was getting at. Our delphia program is a bit of work and so receiving letters is kind of the icing on the cake at the end of the semester. They worked throughout the semester getting their tests done and so on, and then Hooray, you get to wear letters at the end of it all. The stiched kind that is.
The only time delphias can wear letters is when the rest of the house is... like for an athletic event or our philanthropy or something. Our "sport shirt" has letters on it and they can wear that then. But actually, now that I think abou it, many of the shirts that we pass out to new members and the rest of the house don't have letters on it anyway. Some do, but not all. So newbies can wear and represent the organization still.
