In my dinosaur days of the early/mid80s, we did call fraternity-sorority get-togethers mixers. We only ordered tshirts for major events such as Homecoming and Spring Carnival, but not for mixers or formals. We wore stitched-letters a lot. I'm not sure if it's a North-South, a generational, or just a LAC vs techy school thing, but my D has a million "function" GLO shirts and very few stitched-letter shirts. Based on the shirts that my clients want incorporated in their tshirt quilts that I design, it's generational or Southern as the intended owners are young (estimating from the dates on shirts) and attended a variety of colleges (albeit mostly below the M-D line).
All I can say is keep the design relatively cleancut if it's a coed function shirt. One shirt that was provided for a quilt was for a sorority alumna. Her mom commissioned it as a surprise. The phrase Sloppy Seconds in large, tdrippy olive-green letters was the major design of this specific shirt. I have no idea if her mother knew what that meant or not but that would not be a shirt that I would personally want incorporated.
