Badge v. Pin
Back in the day....a really long time ago, we called our badges... pins.
My daughters call theirs badges, yes, I know a lot of things have changed!

I noticed this when I was remembering the lyrics of a song we sang in my chapter back when I was in school as compared to the official lyrics in the song on our international webpage today. I don't know if I misremembered it or if we really sang "pin set with pearl."

My Pledge Mother demanded that we would wear a pin, that the Adelpheans wore a badge. I understand that's not quite as strict anymore - or that it was a chapter thing.
I don't think I've ever referred to my pin as a badge. Badge sounds like something a Girl Scout earns, IMHO.

Of course, fraternity men "pin" their girlfriends; they don't "badge" them!

But you could make a case for "badgering"...

Now this was the best ever!
Gosh, gone a year and look at what happens! YAY, what a great story. I loved all of the pics. I love DG, preffed there along with Kappa, hard choice. Glad you got to experience two sororities, know thatthe DG thing had to really hurt and I hope you are still friends with lots of your good DG friends. I am so happy for you and I love it that you shared your badge, that is greeeaaat! I am tired and haven't adjust to being back, but I would be totally alright with doing that. I think that was really greeeaaat you did that. I got pinned with my Grandma"s Key and loved it. But I sent it home immediately because I would lose it and knew I was going to be gone. I think that is chill you did that, I wish more would do it. I hope gc'ers will take that and do it, it would make initiation even have more special memories. So happy you got KD and loved it, you deserved it! LOL Thanks!
