Do you still have your pledge ribbons?

My chapter still uses pledge ribbons. In fact, most of the sororities at UT use pledge ribbons. I still have mine, but I was just a new member last year.

Yes. They're so badly faded it's not funny. I still have my little Pledge Puppy too.

I have my Paper Anchor I had to get signed by all the actives. I have my invitation to pledge Delta Gamma. I have the letters of welcome I got on pledge night. And...

I still have the little white dress I wore to pledging.

Obviously, I'm into antiques...

My chapter still uses them...however we sadly don't get to keep them.

I think in an effort to not have to go out, buy ribbon, and make them every time we needed them, we traded in the ribbon pin for our pi alpha pin on the night of formal pledging (which usually happened the Sunday following Bid Day). I do know from being a former Dir. House Corporations (although we just had a suite in the Women's Building since no sorority has a house on our campus) that there was a whole box of the ribbon pins in our closet.

We had to return ours when we received our Pi Alpha pins and they were reused for the next pledge class.
