Eeew, no we don't. The skeletons we use belong to members of a sorority our founders initially petitioned to absorb us but they chose not to. We hold grudges.

Paddy Murphy at Pitt is so incredibly creepy... I only went once. That was enough.

We only hold a life leasehold on our coffins, after our death they are to be returned to HQ lest they become new collectible items on eBay.

Coffins, the new collectible.

Too bad you aren't allowed to be buried with your coffins. ASA's have the choice to be buried with our coffins. Or we can pass them on to legacies, or return them to HQ for archives.

See, there's a situation where it would totally make sense to circle the fat on pledges. You'd want to make sure they can fit into the coffins. Imagine the embarrassment if, say, a girl's thighs have to be squished into the coffin and then the lid won't stay down? The mind reels!

Of course. But we only invited top-tier fraternities over to participate in the circleing of the fat. And, needless to say -the pledges had to wear bikinis from only Elite designers.

wow, you allowed your pledges to wear bikinis? Ours could only wear their birthday suits. How else could they be properly fitted for the cat suits?

You're right, it would have been for Paddy Murphy (I've seen them used for this purpose). SAE doesn't use coffins for anything ritual-related.
