Just a question...and I could be wrong....
But isn't the AXO badge actually a lyre?

I just learned yesterday that AOII's colony pin is a rose. I always wondered if they just used the Sheaf of Wheat pledge pin, but apparently they started using the rose in the '50s.

Yes it is a lyre... the first musical instrument played on top of Mt. Olympus by the Greek Gods.
Returning to topic... CONGRATS ON KAT!!

That's really cool - I like the sentiment behind that!

Pin hijack
I always liked the fact that our pin has our symbol - the crescent - and our letters. But I'm biased . . .

Wow, I'm so happy things turned out for you in the end! That is so exciting! There's such a higher level of enthusiasm and motivation when you're colonizing vs just joining and it definitely speaks highly of you that you were chosen as a founding member of that chapter since you had to meet with Nat'l! Good job, CONGRATS and good luck!!! Please post pics!!! And keep us all updated on the colonizing process - I'm curious to hear all about it!!!

Yeah, I think it's a lyre also - but it looks kinda similar to a harp. I think it's neat to go to the NPC site and look at the poster of the different pins for all the sororities - my greek advisor had it up in her office when I was in college and when I was a Rho Gamma I was in or around her office a lot so I would always take a curious peak at it. Since we only had 6 groups on my campus, there were lots of pins I had never seen before!

There was a thread just to talk about pretty pins, but I can't find it. The search function doesn't search for words with three letters, like "pin" or "NPC" for example.
