There is such a negative exisiting perception of Greeks being whorish alcoholics that it only makes sense to avoid any sort of GLO-affiliation with your attire when you are acting loud and obnxious, drinking alcohol or looking to get your groove on. It's a PR thing. If we come off looking like polished, classy students with our letters on, that's good PR.
I'm not advocating binge drinking and rowdy behavior just because you aren't wearing letters-- even when you are not wearing your letters, people tend to know "who" you are. But college is a place to make mistakes-- hence all the over-drinking-- make your mistakes wisely. Stay safe.
