Are you usurping the spelling queen bee now?

Look over head and see if the Foo Bird is flying over Your Head.

Or are you more worried about being snarky and semi kool?

Why should I advertise for Old Navy, Da GAP, Buttweiser, Nike just to be cool and over pay on items?
My old chapter advisor is the same way - good paraphernalia can cost as much as mainstream name brands, and at least you know most of your clothes will match. now i dont wear my letters everyday, but it makes it a hell of a lot easier to figure out what to wear to a greek event.

Good letter to Loyola campus newsletter. Sorority member discussing the attitudes she gets when she wears her letters.

No he didn't. His obvious point concerned the differences between men and women as to what they might wear, not whether the organization to which they belong is officially called a "fraternity" or "sorority." Nice try, though.

Let's not rewrite history. His "obvious point" was to launch a personal attack, but instead, he made himself look like an ass with his ignorance.

Doesn't change the truth of the rest of his post...which I'm sure has been reported.

Now for the main subject at hand, wearing letters as Alums.

I can assure you there are plenty of guys that have absolutely no idea that sororities like Kappa, Theta, Pi Phi, etc. are officially referred to as Fraternities. If that makes all of us "look like asses with our ignorance" then so be it.

.....now go drink your prune juice, comb through some public records, and shut up.

No, bluesangel;, IMVHO you are the one who is making the error.
I only know about "fraternity" because a few of our "Little Sisters" were members of a few of those "sororities" with official title of "Fraternity".
And when I first heard it, I truly thought that my leg was being pulled.

And getting back to topic, IMHO, what one choices to wear and when is really up to them.

Many of us seem to wear letters at the gym; my gym seem like a regular Greek row on some nights.

During the summer, I have a hat or two I wear.
And when I wear a jacket, I have a two flag lapel pin.

And I have a "vanity plate" as well.

As we have seen here, others wear more, other wear less.
