As crazy as this sounds, I honestly can't imagine wearing a pin other than Alpha Delta Pi's diamond! If absolutely forced, I would go with one of the "shaped" pins, such as KKG, Pi Phi, or AXD:


Kappa Kappa Gamma:



Pi Beta Phi:



Alpha Xi Delta:

I have a few favorites besides of course my beautiful AOII badge!

ZTA! Love this one on HJ Greek!


GPhiB! So pretty with pearls and emeralds!


Alpha Xi Delta...love the emeralds and pearls (I love emeralds in case y'all are wondering!)


Can't leave out KD's gorgeous badge with emerald points!


I know I've seen a KKG key and a Theta badge with emeralds before...just can't find a picture.

But these are all ones I would have to have!!!

So, OleMissGlitter, if AOII would let you get an emerald badge…

That's a fair enough response. I think emeralds would look lovely on y'all's badge, myself…especially on the yellow gold. And if they ever decided to add another jewel option, emerald could be for the leaves/stem of the rose.

As for me, first choice would have to be Kappa Sigma's star and crescent. I've always thought that was a cool design. Runners up would be Sigma Chi, ATO, Delta Psi*, Sigma Nu and Sig Ep.

On the distaff side, I'd have to go with Pi Phi or SAI.

Is there a picture of it on GC somewhere? (And if not . . . )


* Since it may not be as familiar as the others, this is the badge of Delta Psi (St. Anthony Hall):

Nope not yet, we don't get a pin at initiation because pins aren't realy worn here. We get our pin upon graduation (or when we take alum status) and, since I'm still in graduate school, I have to wait a few more months before I get mine! I'll post a picture when I get it.

Perhaps this answer appeared in another thread, but does anyone know if OMG ordered the special NPC AOII emerald badge commemorating Carole Jones' 2017-19 tenure as NPC Chair? And will that badge be available through 2021 to coincide with Carole's new two-year term as Chair?

I did order one! I got it in 2017 right after they became available. Here is a pic of what I got. I bought mine in all gold, chased. It's very pretty!

That's funny - I was just at Convention and found myself sitting next to one of the women on the Rituals, Traditions and Jewelry committee and asked her if the badge is going to be extended to 2021 since Carole is now going to be Chair for two more years. She didn't know. I haven't bought mine yet because of numerous issues people have had with the quality of the badge, I suppose I'll pull the trigger eventually.


I also asked her if there would be a special badge for our upcoming 125th anniversary - she didn't say no!
