Thanks for the info. I know my bag collection is one of my favorite sorority things because as a teacher I haul everything to school in them.

I've never heard of anyone doing this, although it sounds like a cute tradition. Personally, I can count on both hands with fingers left over the number of girls who had sorority bags from all 4 sororities on campus (I was one of them!).

My chapter made some one year as a retreat event. I've made some some and given them some of the other girls. Not many on campus have bags. The ones that do have them either made them or bought them from the Greek Vendor during NM Presentation.

What is really funny is to look at some of the bags that get willed to people. One of mine is a blue bag with Sigmas in bright pink over a white grid type of logo. It cracks me up, because it was made in the 80's but is back in style. I have a three classic looking ones with plain/ sewin on letters. My fav is black with with circles on it made of skull and bones, sailboats, violets then letters. Actually counting all the bacgs I have I maybe have 7 or 8 total. I found 2 more when I was cleaning out my classroom last week. Some sororities kept the same bags so that everyone knew them, but most chapters did a different bag for each NM class.

OMG, at first this a thiught of Old GLO Sororitys Bags=Old Ladies!

Thank goodness it is not!

But things that can be passed sown from Sister to Sister are very nice and can hold a lot of feelings for years.

It used to be paddles that may have been used for hazing, but this can be a positive thing that will live forever!

Good for You all!

HA! One of my favorite memories was receiving my first sorority bag. They're fun because you can use them a lot more than just letters, and personalize them

Bitch Bags

I go to the university of toledo and most sorority girls have sorority bags...many of the people on campus who are independants call refer to our bags as "Bitch Bags" us greek ladies have kinda just rolled with the nickname because we are unphased. Now the smaller bags are starting to be called "Bitchettes" kinda like baguettes. Everyone gets their own bag. for most chapters its after initiation into the chapter. in my chapter the bigs buy thier littles their bags. in my family in particular the big gets to pick out the colors/patterns with help from the little but its a suprise as to which one we actually pick out. other fams just let the little pick whatever they want. im a rho gamma right now and i want nothing more than to have my bitch bag back cause i love my letters!!!
