I have a friend who pledged an NPC sorority, but wasn't initiated. She is attempting to AI into a different group, and has almost completed the process. I told her that she should relinquish all of her old letters.

Really...your "friend" is doing this?

So are you going to relinquish all those KD t-shirts you bought on ebay?

Okay, I'm curious - I've seen it posted in several threads today. I'm not doubting any of you guys, but just kinds curious how you all know this in Brandi who-ever, wanna be KD? She's only got 11 posts? Did I miss something?

For some reason I'm not 100% convinced this is her. I can't help but think that this is just someone who wants us to think that it's her. The profile reeks of the BRC: pageants, Louis Vuitton (she sells "authentic" ones on eBay), etc. etc.
Of course, I could be wrong -- but oh well. The gir's that delusional to do anything, I suppose.

BrandiRae was KDLady00, from Pearl, MS who had a thing with pagents and pretending she was a KD. So anytime a name shows up that's KD related and the location is Pearl, MS it doesn't take long to figure out that it's her (or someone pretending to be her).

It surprises me that a pledge was even given letters.....In most NPC sororites, you can not wear letters until you are full member. The only exception I know of is if a chapter is brand new, then the new member class is allowed to wear letters...

That is very much an exception, not the rule. While a few sororities have national rules on it, most of them do not, and such rules are made on a chapter by chapter basis. In fact they can be considered hazing.
Our bid day shirts have letters on them, as did those of all of the chapters at our school.

Agreed. For years, our new member class received letters on Bid Night/Bid Day, and our former national president was aware of those evenings since she lived near by--if we had been doing anything wrong, we would have heard about it, trust me. The only reason they stopped doing it is because they decided they wanted to wear their fashionable Bid Day shirts designed by chapter sisters instead. However, they are still "shirted" with letters, as well. That is not a standard rule for all NPCs.

Ok, my bad....I know it a rule for Theta, and I had been told by many other members of other GLOs it was for them too....Maybe it was just at those chapters though....

That could be it--it might have been in their chapter bylaws; but again, that could be considered hazing by today's standards. You have to be really careful.

I know as for the campus I was initiated at, no NM wore letters, out of the three NPCs, three locals, and the fraternities on campus.
