NPHC vs. NPC vs. NIC vs. NALFO

Gamma Phi Beta, Alpha Gamma Rho, Kappa Sigma, Delta Delta Delta, FarmHouse, Alpha Delta Phi, Lambda Chi Alpha, and more I am forgetting all use the crescent moon as a symbol.

Kappa Sigma also uses the crescent.

I knew I was forgetting one!

Sigma Kappa shares the violet with Alpha Delta Pi, Delta Sigma Theta, Zeta Tau Alpha and Sigma Sigma Sigma.

Zeta's flower is specifically a white violet.

Zeta Tau Alpha and Kappa Alpha Order both have badges that are black enamel shields. That is because a KA helped to organize Zeta - he was the brother of one of the founders.

Also - several sororities, including Zeta, were founded at Longwood College in Farmville, VA. I can't remember the others - my pledge education was just too long ago!

The Farmville Four are Kappa Delta, Zeta Tau Alpha, Sigma Sigma Sigma, and Alpha Sigma Alpha It was a question on my new member test

According to ariesrising's site, Phi Kappa Sigma uses the yellow crysanthemum. Her website is a great resource for anybody who wants to know more about other organizations:

1. I felt like bumping this thread. I do what I want!
2. This thread was considered "related" to the NALFO/NPC thread
3. Didn't realize SDT and SGRho shared colors and flower. No wonder we were mistaken for each other at the chapter I advised.
4. Remember when geocities was a thing?
5. Funny how 11 years later many chapters are bringing "Sigma" back as a nickname.
