Several of our girls either had tattoos or got tattoos while attending college, but I only know of one sister who got an Alpha Gam (or related) tattoo. It was small and tasteful, and she had it put on the inner part of her ankle. She could cover it up with a bandaid or sock if needed. I believe it was our letters with red and buff roses and a flower lei draped across the letters. We, the collegians, all liked it, but a bunch of the alumnae advisors at the time didn't approve.
I remember an IHQ consultant and alumnae having a problem with one of my pledge sisters having nose and belly rings, but piercings seem to be more popular and less of "an issue" these days.
A bunch of guys from my husband's pledge class decided to brand themselves with their letters (SigEp.) The boys were a bit on the extreme side. If I'm not mistaken, these same fellows decided that they should wear their pledge pins in the shower (pinned to their skin) because they were instructed to wear their pins at all times during their pledge period. Thankfully, my husband did neither.
