My understanding from alums is that back in the day, sisters kept up more with things like their number, and their number within the pledge class. (Amanda would be #4, and I would be #3.)

Yep yep. I don't know the official name of the book. According to Chelsea, it used to be a huge deal. They'd use the initiation numbers to pull rank. So if I was sitting in a desk in chapter, and a older sister wanted it, I'd have to give it up.

Ok never heard of this. I like it, I like it! I think we lost that down here in the south. I stress the importance of tradition at Alpha Epsilon and I'm trying to reclaim a lot that has been lost over the years....
On another note...have you all joined the forum on the website, this would be a good discussion over there....I think I'll start it

With age comes power... at least at Nu!
I don't know my number at Nu, but since I'm one of the founding mothers I know it's less than 20. So you're telling me that if I drop by a chapter meeting I can just go down the row making people give up their seats for me? That cracks me up!!

Even if that wasn't a tradition, do you honestly think that anyone at Nu wouldn't give up a seat for you?? I mean, you're Ginger!
