A hearty Huzza to both for the nice and oh, great article about the LXA Badge!

Well done Jono, well done!

Thank you Bob for the Pixs!

Awesome!

Brothers,

The October issue of the Cross & Crescent Magazine is now available. This is the 23rd issue of the magazine published as promised and on time.

So far, a small team of staff members and volunteers have published 368 pages of fraternity related material in this format.

Be sure to read Jono's excellent article in the history section of the C & C. There is also quite a bit of chapter news to read this time around.

Enjoy....

Yours in ZAX,

Mike Raymond,
ZUZeta

Onr of the first things that I read when it is put up.

Amazing of some of the Brothers that many of us do not know!

Brother Hren's article was very inlightening.

Hello all,

I believe I heard or read somewhere that someone or some committee in IHQ was revamping the color scheme for the CoA. Or something to this extent. Also, the article made it seem/implied that some detail was lost in the change towards this final version of the CoA; I assume they're working on this as well?

Anyone have any info on this update of the CoA or perhaps I just imagined this?

ZAX,
Adam

It was actually posted up here as well, I think that Brother Dever was the one who brought it up and actually saved the PDFs of it. I have copies if you are interested, or you can just seek him out and ask him.

As far as losing something through the changes, I suggest asking Brother Jono since he wrote the article.

Oh, updated colors IS a good idea.

I like it. I know our colors are "purple, green and gold" but in the world of color, that isn't very specific.

We should have a unique shade of each of those. Something with a Pantone value for reproduction.

The Coat of Arms is currently be created and standardized in a vector format by the Lambda Chi Alpha Graphics Committee (made up of Alumni), helping Jason Pearce and Chris Barrick at LCA Int. HQ. I would imagine that a .SVG file will be available when it is complete. Jeff R. 13:41, 26 April, 2007

I knew I'd find it eventually. By the loss of detail comment, I meant that I was wondering if they were going back to higher details in this version. I'll have to find Dever or Pearce and ask'em. Anyone know how to get ahold of them?

GZ, I'm sure that royal purple, kelly green, and old gold are pretty specific colors, though even within these, I'm sure there is still some leeway.

ZAX,

I believe that Pantone colors are a part of the plan.
