I'm not sure that fraternities at my school pin girlfriends, but I do know that they lavalier...they also give sweetheart status, but that's another story...

One of the fraternities here requires a majority vote, 3/4 actually, when a brother wants to lavalier his girlfriend. The other requirements are that the couple has to have been together for at least one year and each brother can only lavalier one girl in his entire life (with the exception of engagements, which are automatic lavalier).

Personally, I like this format of lavaliering because it shows that not only does the boyfriend care about his letters and about his girlfriend, but that the brothers support their relationship and also have a say in who can and cannot wear their letters....after all, the letters mean something to the rest of the brothers as well.
