We are not allowed to wear our letters if we are underage and drinking. Also please use the term "Fraternity". Frat is considered derrogatory

But it's ok to drink underage...

Conversely, are you supposed to you wear your letters out drinking when you're 21? Probably not.

You done telling people off from 6 months ago?

Honeysaurus here... We considered our lavaliers casual, too casual for a formal. But we also knew to tuck it under our shirts if we happened to consume too much.

Some people consider "frat" derogatory. Not everyone does, though. In some fraternities and on some campuses, the use of "frat" is common and not considered the least bit derogatory.

Says who, Grasshopper?

I agree with honey, I wouldn't wear a lavalier at a formal not because of the letters issue, but because 1) most formal-dress necklines look better with pearls or something and 2) they are "everyday" necklaces, not for special occasions.

If you're at a really small school everyone knows what group you're in so wearing or not wearing letters in any form is a moot point.
