They go and make sweatshirts and make the letters in different patterns and colors. They wear the para, just not in the HBCU fashion (making crossing jackets, stepping, etc). They didn't even give us line numbers. We just have chapter numbers (as you'll see in my signature). As long as they love the frat and handle their biz, you do you, let them do them.
"They didn't even give us line numbers".

The use of lines is something that comes from BGLOs. Only those APO chapters that were influenced by these traditions use lines (and the rest). Most chapters aren't, so most wouldn't understand them. (I certainly don't)

That's said, I DO like to see chapter members wearing letter shirts and pins. I get a bit disappointed when I go to a chapter meeting and don't even see pins worn.
