For those who are wondering what Gamma Phi's color "mode" is, it's light brown. I've been told that technically "mode" is any lighter shade of a true color, but I don't know if that's correct. Anyway, basically our formal colors are dark and light brown, with pink added as an informal color. The brown colors come from a professor at Syracuse (Dr. Brown) who let Gamma Phi use his study for their first meetings.

The Alpha Gam squirrel does have a name. It's Skiouros, which is the Greek word for Squirrel. Here is a brief description of Skiouros:

"In the days when Gamma (Wesleyan Univ - Middletown CT) first made the triple colors of red, buff, and green her own, some of her energetic number sought a mascot to symbolize the characteristics of the colors and progress of Alpha Gamma Delta. In the autumn tints, so beautifully dear to us in our song of that name, they received the suggestion, and the little squirrel, typical frequenter of autumn haunts, was chosen as the mascot...Our little friend, we find is also nimble and agile - he leaps from branch to branch and accomplishes much progress...to symbolize the spirit that never dies, the spirit of energetic alertness and progress."

Unfortunately, Gamma Chapter is now inactive..but you never know when a Gamma squirrel will pop up again!

Thanks! I made it just brown on my post...there's not even two brown selections.

That's really cool though...and I have to say I love the combination of pink and brown.
