Our unofficial mascot-the turtle-was adopted sometime in the 70's to honor a past National President (ashamed to say I don't know her name off the top of my head). Many of our older alums don't acknowledge the turtle at all....
Some of our chapters have different unofficial mascots b/c other chapters at their schools already had turtles by the time we started using them (I know of one that uses bunnies instead of turtles).
