BTW, I don't want to be a downer, but since you mentioned wanting your girl to wear it as a lavaliere, you might want to take a look at Article XXI, Section 4, of the National Constitution. ("Only Sinfonians in good standing may wear or otherwise display the Greek letters '
FMA' or the Fraternity’s Coat-of-Arms. . . . . A member may not authorize or encourage a non-Sinfonian to wear or otherwise display these symbols.")
Good luck, and welcome to GreekChat.
