I want to get one for my mother for Christmas, but I have a few questions.

Is it only for ADPi's mother who aren't in another sorority? My mother is an initiated member of Kappa Alpha Theta and will occasionally wear her pin from that. Can she wear the ADPi mother's pin too or is she not allowed b/c of her KAT pin? Obviously I doubt she'd wear BOTH at the same time, but still.

Anyone's mother have one of these or intend to get one for them?

Thanks !
Any ADPi mom may wear the mother's pin, as long as she is the mom of an ADPi! She may be a member of another sorority and still wear our mother's pin.

My chapter holds the mother ceremony every year during parent weekend-- it is a beautiful "open ritual" ceremony where we invite the females in our family to brunch. Your TME district director will have a copy of the ceremony. It is a great addition to your unversity's family weekend-- the mother ceremony ends with the singing of "I Love the Pin" and pinning your mom, and there is rarely a dry eye in the house!

My mom is not a big pin wearer, but even with her daughter (me!) being an alum, she still wears her ADPi mom pin with pride and tells people about how she got it
