Good job, Gwyn! More specifically, it was the Marguerite Daisy, but close enough!
Anyone know the original colors?

Aww wow! I had white roses and wanted to have daisies at my wedding, too. What a coincidence.  I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess--yellow and white? Not sure, since there are several varieties of marguerite daisies. Someone tell us!!!

So these questions are WAY outside of what I know, but how I LOVE reading this thread all the time.

olive green and silver gray
I got to work with Shirley Gee at HQ pack up things for the archives display at convention (which is next week!!!). It probably the coolest thing ever because we got to go through tons of old stuff including the first yearbook to feature KD. SydneyK, I agree that I learned a ton after reading through it.
I also got to handle Geneview Holladay's (aka our first national president) council ring AND handwritten notes from Julia Wilson, where she talked about our founding and the ritual. Reading that gave me chills.
Anyone going to convention needs to check out the archive display. It is going to be awesome!

Early in the 20th Century, there was a debate concerning a woman who claimed (or others had claimed her) to be a fifth founder. Of course, we now know this to be false, but who was this woman?

That's amazing! I would love to see the archives someday.
Okay, so here's a pretty easy question that's not in the history books. I couldn't decide whether to post it in the NPC Trivia thread or here. (Of course, over there I'd have to get an answer right to post it so....)
There is a secret society in existence today (at some unnamed university  ) that was founded in 1900 by members of 3 NPCs. One of those NPCs is Kappa Delta.
What's the name of the secret society? Where is it located? And what two other NPCs were involved in its founding?
