Thanks FSU for clearing that up - my pledge manual is in a big tupperware tub and I didn't feel like digging through it.
As far as little sister orgs, I know of at least one for sure that was a group of women at UGA (stopped in the late 70s I think) that was a little sister org to DTD there, they even have their own composites in the house. I'm not sure if it's a 20th century thing but I was always under the impression it was much older until I saw those composites in the house (Iris Sisters I think they were called... not sure).
At first I too thought using the word fraternity was odd, but when it was explained to me that a sorority had a men's organization help them get founded it made sense to me and I was always proud of the fact that we were a "womens fraternity. That's not to deman any other group, I just thought the reason was neat. I wholeheartedly agree that we all have wonderful attributes, etc. and I certainly don't think that ZTA is necessarily "better" than any other org (of course I love it above all others, can't be helped!). Obviously I don't know what other meaning the colors for Gamma Phi have besides honoring Dr. Brown, I would assume they hold a special meaning beyond that, just as Zeta's colors do and all other orgs. I appreciate the fact that you all love Gamma Phi as I love ZTA and would stand up for your org so I don't take any of this personally either, but a little more discussion and little less attitude would be nice
