Here's a jumper picture from Longwood College's Greek Life page:

The NPC sororities there are:
AGD
ADP
ASA
AST
DZ
ZTA
KD
SK
SSS

So you can probably figure out the jumper colors from there.

Oh good Lord, it's fairly innocent if you ask me.

Why is that sad? That family is a bunch of fundamentalist freaks. Srsly. Have you seen any of their tv specials?

i have wondered if the only way that that family can afford to feed and cloth so many kids is to have tv special. it was just a thought.

I agree... Humans were not meant to have that many children, I think it's rather irresponsible.

I like the jumper tradition, and really they aren't all that bad.. I'd wear one, (as long as everyone else was too HEHE)

Hey. So I am an alumna of Longwood. Back in the day, Longwood was a Normal School (a school for women wanting to become teachers). Each woman was required to wear a school uniform of sorts- a long dress (jumper). Some of the women in sororities decided to dye their jumpers with their sorority colors. So, still today, each sorority wears jumpers about once or twice a month (even during the winter). Each woman usually picks out a pattern and has a dress maker in town make the jumper or some moms or grandmothers do it. Colors for each sorority:

ZTA- turquoise
AGD- gingham with green, red and yellow
ASA- red
DZ- pink
Sig Kap- maroon
Tri Sigma- purple
ADPi- blue
AST- green
KD- green top and white bottom

I loved jumper day- they are very comfortable!

Longwood has tons of quirky traditions, all of which I loved! Hope this clears things up!

I'm so happy to finally see pictures, and they look better than what I was expecting.

Teacher style is often most baffling to those of us who are teachers but have no interest in little red-school house embroidered sweaters or wooden yellow pencil jewelry.

As SWTXBelle noted, dressing professionally and appropriately for a job with a lot of random duties is more challenging than you'd think, and jumpers, any time you can sort of fashionably get away with it (these things do seem to have a cycle) make sense.

But it still doesn't explain this:
