Pledge Pin Requirements

[honeychile]

Back when I was a pledge, we wore our pledge pin at all times, except in the conditions you mention, or to bed. Yes, some other sororities required their pledges to wear their pins to bed!

But now we have New Members - Alphas - and they wear their pledge pins only when wearing Pin Attire (what you would wear to a religious service or to a business meeting).

My own opinion is that there should be a happy medium between the two extremes. I wouldn't mind seeing more of the New Member pin rather than less - but I'll "toe the line".

I agree. I don't think I wore my pledge pin more than a dozen times during my pledge period, and it was a really pretty pin! Then again, I always liked dressing up for chapter and thought we had too many "informal" chapters where you could wear jeans, etc.
