I got my first choice but what an idiotic way I got to it! I tell everyone this....I decided early on that I wanted a sorority whose badge was some "thing" not just their letters or a shield. Not a very good way to go about making choices but, hey, I was 17. So, I wanted a lyre, a key, a crescent, etc. Funny thing was, I had a cousin I couldn't stand in the Pi Phi house. I LOVED their badge - who wouldn't want an arrow? Well, she grabbed me at ice water teas and drug me around to everyone, oohing and aahing over me. She couldn't stand me! I dropped them like a hot potato...and got a nasty phone call from my mother about it. Cousin called her mother, her mother (my aunt) called my mother. You get the drift. Oh well...nut I really did like that arrow!
I would have been happy at my 2nd choice - Alpha Chi. Still have some friends there - 45 years later - and still have their silver lyre charm on my silver charm bracelet (we used to give favors at pref). It was in a little box and you were supposed to put it under your pillow that night and dream about angels and their lyres....and I did. But I wore my DG anchor around my neck too! (Was I ever hedging my bet here!) Got DG and love my anchor...so in spite of my stupid way of accepting invitations, I ended up with 2 great choices - either one of which would have made me happy...but I am very glad that I got my first choice - DG! "It's Delta Gamma down here at Bama, don't you want to be a DG too?"
