I did a sister search on the Gamma Alpha chapter. The only alumnae in good standing initiated at the UGA chapter with the maiden name of Starr was initiated in 1937. That means that Twinkle is either not in good standing or she looks good for her age.

Check the lost sister search, she may have changed her name. A woman with that maiden name initiated in 1971, and another in 1948 at Gamma Alpha. I won't put anything else out there to first or married names, but I think we figured it out, kind of.
IHeartUGA maybe you can check with the UGA Alumni Office, find her current information, and get her OFF the Lost Sister List.

I forgot about the Lost Sister Search. Glad I looked because a couple of my sisters for which I have addresses are "lost".

I know a Sandy Beach (married name). People call her sisters Cocoa and Pebbles. The dates don't match, though, darn! I would so love to tease her about that!

^^ Hopefully it wasn't her real name. Probably a nickname. If she went to school in the 70's she was either born in the 50's or early 60's. Too soon for the parents to be hippies.

I found an older Pledge Class picture on Facebook. It's from 1999, Bid Night.

Clarence H. Mowry (wearing hat - not a cap, left of man with bicycle). Clarence was president of Sigma Chi at Northwestern (seen here with other members of fraternity) [circa 1898]

I'm LOVING the extremely defined parts. Such a lovely look that thankfully has not come back into style!

One Word.... --> Gams..
I never knew what/why exactly legs were hailed as "nice gams" back in the day. But this picture makes it all make sense.
