Theta Random Stuff Thread

I am afraid that I had a terrible with doing this kind of thing recently. I was in line at a restaurant & saw that the young woman in front of me was wearing letters... she had them across her butt, which I hate, but I know that is the fashion now. (Lordy, I sound old!)

I tapped her on the shoulder & asked if she was a Theta, assuming that she WAS. I was SHOCKED when she said "No, these belong to boyfriend's sister and she let me wear them."

When I said quietly "You really shouldn't be wearing them if you are not a Theta," she just flipped out on me! Started almost yelling at me. Almost makes me scared to ask anymore

I'm not too suprised. Lack of manners and respect is running rampant in society anymore (and that's all i'll say about that!)

frankly, if she behaved like that, she truly doesn't deserve to be a Theta. I hope she has since learned some respect. I always feel honored when people come up to me and ask about Theta - I always have at least a tote bag with letters on it to spread my Theta pride!

I ran across this in some of my Theta daughter's stuff. Maybe you've all heard it already. If the Moderator thinks it's anti-panhellenic she can delete the post, but I'm a Kappa and I thought it was cute.


"DATE A THETA"

When my son first left for college,
his dad gave him advice for life:
You can date each and every Kappa
but bring home a THETA for a wife.

You can party with the Tri-Delts,
and it's fine to date a Zeta,
but when it's time to marry,
be sure to find a THETA.

Chi O's can be on your agenda,
and Pi Phi's are fun to date,
but never, ever forget
that you'll want a THETA as your mate.

We want you to enjoy your college years and give
all the sororities a spin.
But never buy a ring unless
KAPPA ALPHA THETA is on her pin.

During your four years of college,
you'll go from one house to another,
but take the advice of your ol' dad
and bring home a THETA to your mother.

Thank you, Wildcatfan!! That is one of our very favorite songs

I was thinking about Alumnae Initiation today. I know Theta does have AI, and someone previously told me the information is on the website, but I was having difficulty finding it. Would someone mind PM'ing me where this information can be found?

Random Stuff:

I'm on a crazy solo cross-country road trip right now, and I randomly dropped in on the Alpha Chapter the other day and got a tour. (If the girl who gave me the tour is on here, then thank you. You made my day!!!) Beautiful house, and upstanding women.

I was wearing my letter jacket today to BSF and someone approached me and said her daughter was a theta too!
