I dont think anyone would have a problem with you buying it as a gift. I think it would be a real problem if you were WEARING the crest or using it for your self.

Just my two cents, though. :-)

*lol* as funny as it seems, that happened when I was in undergrad... a girl had rushed 3 times and didn't get a bid, and just decided to start buying our stuff and wearing it around. *shudder*

Now that is just utterly wrong. Did someone stop her? I know people that would definitely get "extra angry" about wearing their colors without having to go through an initiation to get them. Some people just want to belong...

I'd love to know how you handled it, also. But what can you really do? You can't rip the shirt off of her back - it's just kinda sad.

Our president and new member educator met with her, numerous times, eventually she tired of it.

By the end of the whole thing she took an afghan she had bought (with our crest on it no less) and ripped into a bunch of pieces and left it on our new member educator's dorm door.
