Friendship, love, and loyalty?

I've seen "friendship, love, and loyalty" mentioned as AGD's unofficial open motto a couple of times (either on this board or some chapter's website).

Is that an official-unofficial open motto? That is, did it come from IHQ? Or a chapter come up with it and others copy?

(who's trying to figure out the initials of the translation of "friendship, love, and loyalty" into Greek...Phi Phi Pi?)

Come on in, join the fun
Meet the Alpha Gams, each one.
Friendship. Love. Loyalty.
We're the girls of A-G-D.

Mmm-mmm I'm glad I'm an Alpha Gam
Mmm-mmm I'm glad I'm an Alpha Gam
Mmm-mmm I'm glad I'm an Alpha Gam
It's Alpha Gam for me.


We sang that opening song during Rush every year! Alpha Gam doesn't have an official open motto, correct? I've always assumed that our Purpose is how we are known.

It's also in the song:

We are the Alpha Gam Girls,
We wear the badge of pearls,
Our motto's friendship, love and loyalty you see,
For our sorority,
Superiority,
It's the only way we'll be, we'll ever be.

We wear the red, buff rose,
We strike a charming pose,
Our motto's friendship, love and loyalty you see,
For our sorority,
Superiority,
Alpha Gam sorority.


It hasn't been any of our slogans since I've been around. Perhaps it was at one time, like "Alpha Gam Always" and "Surrounded by Sisterhood" or "Inspire the Woman, Impact the World".

Thanks alot Sandy, now I have that song going through my head... it is like the song that never ends... it just goes on and on my friends... Sandy started singing it, not knowing what it was, and now we'll all continue singing it forever just be cause...

Funny story... when I was just starting in AGD, the day after we learned the hymn... I was in the shower and the song just came from no where.... I sang it for 24 hours... YAHHHHHHH
