Branding

[GammaZeta]

Well, tattoos on arms and legs are acceptable.

Would it be ok if I got a LXA tattoo on my forehead?

Some brothers wear hats. Others t-shirts. Some wear fezes. Some get tattoos. Some get branded.

If that is the way a brother wishes to express his dedication to LXA, we should support that decision as long as it is not illegal.

Ok I first want to address something said about expulsion. It is my personal thinking that if someone gets a tattoo or brand, then obviously they are somewhat dedicated to the fraternity, and even if they get expelled, I feel like it would never take Lambda Chi Alpha out of my heart, regardless of what IHQ says.

Second, I know several brothers from the 90s who already have some and they are on the upper part of their shoulders, which is easily hidden. Oh and let me go ahead and be frank with you guys, I am one of the persons interested in getting a brand, and it would be on the upper half of my thigh, and most likely Delta Pi.

As for the professionalism of the branding, well it would be a half-half thing. the brand itself would be professionally made, but it would have to be applied by a Brother.

So myself personally, I dont believe that its all that bad, it is an alternate way to express your dedication to something you really care about, and by getting one how would that make you any less of a Brother? I would still have the same heart and thought process as the day that I went through.
