The chapter I advise has the seniors' littles make them each a scrapbook, plus they get a decorated paddle at their senior brunch. (Littles get a wood anchor from their big after they are initiated.)
The scrapbooks are an expensive and time-consuming endeavor. There are some seniors who start giving their littles pictures and boxes of random stuff for inclusion at the beginning of the year.
They also have a senior week during the last month of the year which includes a dinner to honor the seniors and gives the seniors a chance to will their crap, I mean precious stuff to underclasswomen. Seriously these women give out everything from ratty tshirts to street signs and traffic cones.
This year, at the chapter meeting during senior week, they added a "senior candlepass". This gave all the chapter members an opportunity to thank the seniors who welcomed them into DG and the seniors a chance to bid the chapter farewell. Great idea, but it will be much tougher with 20+ seniors than the 6 they had this year! Senior brunch with the scrapbooks and paddles ends the week.
Senior installation is done the day before graduation with the alumnae chapter officers and the seniors' families.
