Hello my SISTERS!!!!!!!!!!
I do not claim personal credit for this one, but Beta Xi's 2001 Fall Bid Day shirt will be the envy of Southeast. It is light blue with navy, white, and silver printing. The front will have our letters in script (navy w/silver highlights, I believe...), for lack of a better description, right on the breast. The back will be in all three colors. It is a full back design-the text is surrounded by what we assume will look like a strand of pearls with sailboats at the bottom. Under this, it will say something like Southeast MO State U. Bid Day 2001. The text is a quote from the end of Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Waters- "Sail on silver girl
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way
See how they shine
When you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind."
When the we were discussing the shirts at meeting, this was the first idea brought up-we didn't even want to hear the other ideas. Half of us started to cry! We had a wonderful bid day shirt last year, but another sorority plagarized it for their spring bid shirt for Informal Rec. It was pink with purple and silver writing-the main text was "Sometimes the best way to figure out who you are is to go to a place where you don't have to be anyone else!" Unfortunately, it was in silver ink on a coraly-pink shirt (should have been in the purple). My advice is to always make sure that the ink and shirt are different intensities-light ink on dark, dark ink on light, light on med, or dk. on med....NO med-toned ink on med-toned shirt! Hope this helps!
