I really hate the fact that some line names are really screen names.

I never received a line name when I pledged more than 17 years ago.

But I'm cool.

And I make my jackets look good.

Girl, our line "names" were a paragraph long rhyme--and they weren't pretty. And we could pick a couple of innocuous words from it to use on 'nalia, but never disclose the whole "name." We also could not disclose our ship's name, just the initials, except to other chapter sorors.

I've heard about line names like that - and I bet you still remember most (if not all) of your LS's line names too!

I'm guilty to that. I altered mine a little bit to make it more appealing to an online message board, not knowing who was going to be seeing my info and everything. I thought about changing it but I didn't want to have to explain myself to prying minds.

To the OP:
A good idea would be "Your Name Here" on the back of someone's jacket or hoodie. If you all live the high principles of sisterhood, it would become a great recruitment tool.

Wayle...I've been busy - got me a national board position and all. I'm keeping a bit of a low profile before I go and say something that'll get me in trouble. Glad to see you've been on top of things around here, though!

That's a great idea for recruitment/rush shirts. I've never seen something like that on a jacket though, particularly a line jacket.
