I think this applies to any situation where the people around KNOW you are in the organization. If you have a mixer with a fraternity and a few of the women get absurdly drunk and act like idiots/sluts/whatever, it doesn't really matter whether they were wearing letters, does it? The men certainly know which sorority they are having the mixer with.
Perhaps it is because I'm outgoing and friendly, or maybe I'm not as in tune with other people or as observant, but somehow, in all walks of my life, more people know who I am than I know. When I was really sick and lost 65 pounds in 5 months, people I never saw before at work came up to me telling me how good I looked. I have had total strangers at work comment on hair cuts I've gotten. I had a woman stop me at the grocery store and say "I didn't know you lived around here!" She said she worked in my building. I didn't remember ever seeing her before in my life, but she knew me and where I worked and apparently was in the cafeteria every day when I was. It has made me realize that no matter where I am or what I'm doing at the time, I could run into someone who knows me in another capacity and I may not be happy that they've seen me in a different role.
