I've heard that a lot of schools have discontinued their yearbooks due to costs going up. Which I find very depressing.

Pitt changed the format, back in 1980. The yearbook used to be The Owl, but now it is The Panther Prints; that's why The Owl went online.

I know I'm straying from the topic here but please forgive. Since so few colleges have yearbooks, I wonder....Would you purchase a yearbook for your GLO? It might be kind of neat to have a yearbook with a page for each active chapter. I really enjoy seeing all the bid day pictures on here. Not that many make it into our magazine.

Yes! I'd love to have a yearbook with pictures and news from each chapter of KD.

I never bought a yearbook from college but every year I bought our Greek yearbook, The Frieze. It had 2 pages for each sorority and fraternity plus tons of candids for Homecoming, Greek Week, Halloween, Formals, etc. I wonder if they still have it. I'll have to ask Jess.

Since almost everyone who knows my mother knows that she loves history, she has "inherited" so many yearbooks, you simply wouldn't believe it! It's wonderful if you can get a lot from the same school, but comparing different schools in the same year is fun, too. It's just much more fun when your GLO is in both!

Most of the old ones have a full page of each fraternity sweetheart, and maybe two pages for EACH greek event! You can really see the evolution of greek life through yearbooks.
