I was able to select the badge of my choice after I was initiated in 1979. My Big Sis pinned her badge on me at the ceremony. Of the many options available to me, I ended up selecting sapphires for my added bling because it is my birthstone. My daughter, who attended a large public university did not have an option. Every member automatically gets the basic gold badge. It is very plain, but lovely in it's simplicity. And, none of the girls ever seem to mind. I think that they just go with the basic badge to avoid having great disparities within the house due to the fact that some of the members could afford to buy the "crown jewels" version of the badge, while many can afford only the most basic. Many of the members pay for their sorority expenses on their own (not from the "bank of mom and dad").
