I'm glad that we have always had many options about what type of jewels to put in the Pi Phi arrow. We even had a limited edition turquoise pin about 2 years back. The legacy pin (one single raised large pearl on a different style arrow; the kind used for the standard initiation badge) is one of my favorites. So is the garnet/aquamarine pin; which comes closest to our wine and silver blue colors. The choice of what type of bling to get on your pin is a very personal decision. When I initiated, I knew exactly what I wanted- alternating pearls & sapphires. I laughed when I found out that this was standard for a "blinged-out" Kappa. I also have the plain gold initiation pin that I believe every Pi Phi still gets upon initiation, and a small "recognition pin" arrow that has one tiny pearl. I wore the first gold arrow that I ever got, the arrow lavaliere, the most, and sadly lost it a few years ago. It's nice to have a plain pin & a jeweled one so that you have a choice. I think that some people buy several pins at different times (one in undergrad; one when you are older & can afford it, etc.). It's all just a matter of personal taste.
