My favorite thing when I was a collegian was a wide band ring with the crest on it. It came in all gold or all silver. I wore it on my pointer finger. I gave it to my little sis (wish I had kept it!). They still sell them- go to www.deltagamma.org then go to Anchor Trader there is a link to their jeweler. They have become much more expensive than in the late 80's.
My favorite thing as an alumnae is: My circle pendent pin-holder! It allows you to wear your pin in it or take your pin out and wear the pin separately. They didn't have them when I was in school. They are pretty pricey but I get sooooo many compliments on it because it allows me to wear my pin all the time. I wear it on a long chain & sometimes on a choker-type of necklace. I have the silver one because my pin is white gold. You can also find the pendant on DG website's jewelry section.

JustaMom,

I definately think that you should get your daughter flowers for her initiation. On mine, my entire family had sent letters to me and a few girls got flowers, but I didnt!! I just think that she would like them!

I'm STILL waiting on a bracelt that I ordered for her. I was hoping to give it to her this weekend. They are having one of their fundraising events, Jazz Lunceon. I'm really looking forward to it.

One more question-At her presentation, when the fathers escort their daughters at the New Initiates formal, should we get her a single rose-fowers or WHAT??? Is there a tradition, or does it just vary from campus to campus? Maybe I'll ask around at the luncheon, but at my formal, the chapter presented us with a flower.

Maybe I'll get the bracelet today or tomorrow...

On a brighter note-she is so happy with DG. She loves her sisters, in fact three are apt. hunting for next year. She has high hopes to be an officer (Pres-one day) or maybe a spot on Panhellenic. We shall see how it unfolds.
MAYBE-MAYBE-MAYBE!!!

My old roommate (who was a DG) was tickled pink when I told her about my daughter! She still keeps in touch with some of her sisters after all these years.

Thanks, my mother just found my grandmother's invitation to join the chapter at UC berkeley the other day (otherwise known as a bid I think-oh I am soooo old I can't remember)it is very old but still in great condition, I am going to keep it in case I have a daughter that becomes a DG someday. I have so much DG stuff from her.
