Why Greek letters?

[PhoenixAzul]

My sorority was founded under the name of Tomo Dachi (japanese for Circle of Friends). All of the organizations at Otterbein started out under different names, which mostly have continued as nicknames. Sphinx, Onyx, Greenwhich Girls, Kings, Country Club, Arbutus, Tomo Dachi, Owls, Stars (now Rats). But the reason for this was so that there could be social clubs without being fraternities because there was a ban on greek organizations. When it was lifted, many adopted Greek Letters. The intention had always been to be a sorority/fraternity but letters had to wait for a while. Tau Delta was one of the last orgs to take letters. We chose Tau Delta for Tomo Dachi, as we had been known as "TD's" for a while. The song in my sig is the sorority song, called "dear tomo dachi", which we incorporate into almost everything.
