More on the subject of definitions. I've always been under the impression that a difference existed between a badge and a pin. A badge was for use in formal attire: ceremonies, weddings, interviews, banquets. A badge can be jeweled and sometimes customized. Where a pin (sometimes called a recogition pin, active pin, etc) is normally something simple and is more for every day use from chapter meetings, to work, to class. Both are reserved for initiated memebers and are different then a pledge/candidate/new memeber pin - which is used to designate someone who is still in the learning phase of membership.
That has been my take on it. I'm not sure if its correct or not but that's the way i've always understood. *smile*
