Recruitment Manners

This is a pet peeve of mine, and recruitment is the perfect time for everyone to learn the right way ... when you are wearing a name tag, wear it on YOUR right hand side. When someone is reaching for your hand (and vice versa) your name tag is directly in their line of sight and glancing at it will not be obvious or awkward. Besides, your left side -- over your heart -- is reserved for your badge!

The nametag thing is true. I volunteered at an event a few weeks ago, and a sister almost bit my head off because I had my nametag on the wrong side. She didn't know the difference herself until she joined the Junior League

The Badge thing is true as well, though we only wear our Badges once during recruitment, and that was during Pref Ceremony (when I was still in school anyway).
