For Alpha chapter, our paddles are also part of the MC process. They make and decorate them so each are something unique to remember your MC and Active membership by.
The front includes the MC's first name, quarter of initiation, our letters, a message from her big sis, signatures of all the officers, and signatures of all the actives in pin order.
The back includes signatures of the following: Dean of the College of Food, Agriculture and Environmental Sciences; Department Chair of your particular major; SA Advisors; Presidents of the Ag Fraternities; and your MC Class Sisters.
The paddles are a big part of getting to know everyone. If you'd like more info or a photo, shoot me an email at
