21 Pearls?

I got a group e-mail from my university alumni chapter. One of the people on the list has the e-identity "21 pearls." Assuming that that is a badge, whose would it be?

AGD has 14.

Not Phi Mu, either. Pam could refresh our memories but I think the number of jewels on the Phi Mu badge is usually 24, but was 27 or so during the war.

Maybe Tri Sig? Anyone with the pearl as their official badge?

I'm pretty sure either AKA or DST has 21 pearls as an important part of their sororities.

Can't remember which one, though.

AKA uses the phrase "Pretty girls wear 20 pearls" (or at least the AKA in my family does...).

DST has 9 but 22 founders.

AKA has 20 pearls as Sistermadly previously stated.

Isn’t “21 pearls of wisdom” one of those Mitch Axelrod corporate self-help books?

Greek badges which use (or have used) 21 pearls…

Alpha Xi Delta
Zeta Psi

Several groups attach esoteric significance to the number of pearls used, though these groups don't. ( as far as I know. )

I thought I read in a badge thread that AEPhis have 21 pearls on their badge but I could be off.
