Sperrys, top siders, and boat shoes are all interchangeable in my vocabulary - fear not!

^^That's interesting. I guess they are loafers, though I usually consider weejuns to be a more traditional penny/tassel loafer a la Bass Weejuns.

I wonder if it would be uncouth for me to bring up K-Swiss and Kenneth Cole.

ETA: Of course, by "K-Swiss," I mean "Madden"

I've been going through historic photos of chapters around the University of Wisconsin- Madison. I've mostly been looking at buildings, but here are a couple of ones with people in them:

This one's going on some invites I'm sending out for our annual Alumnae/Graduating Seniors Spring Lunch. It's 4 Gamma Phi Betas from the class of 1944, just after finishing finals:




And this one I call, "Depression? What depression?!"
It's outside the Kappa Alpha Theta house at 237 Lakelawn Place (since demolished; they're in a different building now).

Not really retro, but Alpha Delta Pi just posted some cute pictures on Facebook. I love the one that screams MACON MAGNOLIA!




You just know that a few mint juleps were consumed afterwards!
