Wearing letters in colors other than your GLO's

P.S. The drawstring trick straw thing is SUPER smart -- I had to do that with a sweatshirt and I sat there for like 30 minutes trying to pull it through because I didn't know about the straw trick.

Okay, funny story! At my chapter, some girls decided they wanted butt letters to wear during intramurals (it can be hard to identify who is who when people tend to all wear black). One of the alums got very heated and asked them if they were planning on sitting and farting on their letters since they were so conveniently placed! Of course they promptly answered no! Their intentions were great, but at out chapter butt letters are frowned upon.
Another big no-no. is your letters with another org.'s name embroidered on top. Some one showed up with a Phi Mu/Phi Gamma Delta jersey and well...the reception was poor... after that it was everything but said that you are not in some other group, so why should their name go on top of your own? I guess my chapter is pretty "hardcore" for being so non-traditional...never thought about it before!

I would never wear my letters, or any of my other sorority gear, in a different color. Even if I did a patterned background, the pattern's coloring would have to be consistent with my sorority's colors.

As far as wearing the letters across the seats of pants goes, I don't think LADIES should wear any kind of writing across their behinds, period. But, that's just my old-school, Bible-belt, South Carolina upbringing, LOL.
