I came across this on ebay. I first thought it was a Beta Sigma Phi pin, but the letter on the right is an Alpha. From what I found on Google, it might be a Beta Phi Alpha badge.

"Beta Phi Alpha was founded at the University of California- Berkeley in May of 1909 and was the first college fraternity for women on the Pacific coast. Originally called "Bid-A-Wee," the girls club was sponsored by the university to meet a very difficult housing problem. Little did their Founders dream that one day their little club was to become the mother chapter of a national organization. In 1912 the name Bid-A-Wee was changed to "Aldebaran" after the star, and in 1919Aldebaran was oficially changed to Beta Phi Alpha. Following expansion, Beta Phi Alpha was admitted to the National Panhellenic Council (NPC) in 1923 as the nineteenth member and held the chairmanship of NPC from 1935 to 1937. The merger of Beta Phi Alpha with Delta Zeta in 1941 brought two National Convention traditions."
The pin is dated 1935. Am I right? or very wrong?
Heres the pin on Ebay. The person didn't even try to ID it.
