Oh, how I wish that, as well. And on a few issues that are in my mind bigger deals than when you wear letters. Campus culture/'everyone does it' is tough to buck, but aren't collegiate women strong enough to resist peer pressure?

We’re the largest pledge class this year and, because my school just got rid of informal rush, the biggest Sigma’s ever had. Also, my rho chi is a sigma!!! As soon as she showed us her letters I ran over and gave her a huge hug. She had been amazing during rush, I was so excited that I would soon have her as a sister.
Welcome to Tri Sigma!!!!

I got so involved in your story that when you revealed that it was Sigma, I gasped and there was silence around my work station b/c people thought something tragic had happened. I am so excited for you!!!

Just so you know, I understand the campus culture, but when I was a pledge (a very long time ago and my first time as a pledge to Sigma) we were allowed to wear letters. But I understand the thought on waiting....it will be a very special moment when you get put on letters for the first time after your initiation.

Stop by the Tri Sigma forum!

Sigma love,
Gwyn
