im sure other chapters do this, but not necessarily bags... maybe its a shirt, or some type of novelty item. one org on my campus does a class banner, sort of like a homemade composite.

i know, off-topic.

it really could be just your campus, you know. which is fine, gives it character. maybe youll bring the tradition to another campus?

p.s i think its cute.

My chapter created a bag 2 years ago for everyone to get just for fun. We liked them so much that we made them part of our bid night gifts and started giving them out to the NMs with their bids.

All of our new members get bags on bid day and the sisters can order those same bags if we would like.

Thanks for the info. I know my bag collection is one of my favorite sorority things because as a teacher I haul everything to school in them.

I've never heard of anyone doing this, although it sounds like a cute tradition. Personally, I can count on both hands with fingers left over the number of girls who had sorority bags from all 4 sororities on campus (I was one of them!).

My chapter made some one year as a retreat event. I've made some some and given them some of the other girls. Not many on campus have bags. The ones that do have them either made them or bought them from the Greek Vendor during NM Presentation.

What is really funny is to look at some of the bags that get willed to people. One of mine is a blue bag with Sigmas in bright pink over a white grid type of logo. It cracks me up, because it was made in the 80's but is back in style. I have a three classic looking ones with plain/ sewin on letters. My fav is black with with circles on it made of skull and bones, sailboats, violets then letters. Actually counting all the bacgs I have I maybe have 7 or 8 total. I found 2 more when I was cleaning out my classroom last week. Some sororities kept the same bags so that everyone knew them, but most chapters did a different bag for each NM class.
