eta: I went back and zoomed in on the prints. Would I be a perp if I bought the ADPi print? I love the colors and the design. Ditto for AlphaPhi's print. hmm...

All of the sorority prints (new and old) have letters on them, so technically, it'd be perping. However, had it not been printed with letters, I can see why someone could want to wear the Alpha Phi print, since essentially, it's just a floral print (ivy, forget-me-nots, and lilies of the valley). If someone had a letterless Alpha Phi print, no one would question their GLO affiliation or lack thereof. Same with Chi Omega, since it has flowers and owls, the latter of which are very popular right now. But the ADPi and Theta prints have combinations of elements that would be random or incoherent to someone who doesn't know the symbolism (and even without the letters, might prompt speculations about perping). Why are pansies and black kites together? Why are there lions on an LP print? If I saw a letterless Theta print, you bet I'd assume the wearer was a Theta.

Is the Chi O one really as pink in person as it looks on the FB page? I mean it looks more pink than red.

I love the Alpha Phi one - as a print. As a representation of Alpha Phi though, I don't know. As far as the Theta one, the less said, the better - both the color change (they could have just used a white background as opposed to a color that has nothing to do with the sorority) and the print in general.

ASA is already all over Lily (the palm tree ) so we don't need no stinkin' contest.

OMG!!! THOSE ARE OUR SUPPLEMENTARY COLORS!!! I am sounding the perp alert right now...the nerve of some people.

In all seriousness, the palm tree is my favorite of our symbols, because it's fairly unique and because of the meaning we attach to it. I wish we would incorporate it a lot more than we do.

Yes and then we'll hold hands, sit around the campfire, toast marshmallows, sing Kumbaya... and then try to poke one another's eyes out with the pointy sticks

Panhell <3 to you, 33!
