Ivy Priming since the mid to late 1980s:
ivy: A pledge of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.
linesisters: Fellow members of the line, i.e. "Where are your ivy linesisters"
front and back: The pledge in front of you and in back of you relative to your line
Big Sisters/Brothers: Self explanatory
Special Big Sister: She's special and would be afforded the utmost respect from those who want to be greek... Frequent gifting is desirable and often lacks high expense.
DP: Dean of pledges or what is called the MIP chair now
your super: Maybe it is an East coast thing, but I lived with my "ivy linesister" who was my super...
sands: Other sorors or fellow greek members who pledged the same
year as you... Back in the day, all schools only pledged one semester or year for that matter... It changed when official MIPing started.
Here's a question: How do YOU sing or chant the "Alphabet Song"? Slow, fast, extra-parts? We would sing it fast with A.K.A. let me hear you say... Then start over. Come to find out my Soror Mom from early 1960's whole semester above ground pledging sang it fast, too...
Deltaqte: I concur, 100% with the times!!! If folks find it extremely important to keep "accuracy", then maybe they should consider using the military standard of time... One could always say that they were in another "time zone" while crossing... But your idea is the best...
Hey, this is interesting!!!
