Inserting our Greek letters into words

Well, Prince does that too.

If you're going to do anything with phrases, use what the Greek letters ACTUALLY STAND FOR. The Sigmas used as Es thing irritates the crap out of me too...and it can have the bad effect of being translated backward the same way. I have actually had members of other sororities (looking at a paper with our letters on it in Greek) refer to my sorority as "Alpha Epsilon Alpha."

Don't worry. A girl walked up to be before, looked at my letters and said, "OMG! Sigma Alpha Epsilon?!?!"

I figured most people knew Alpha from Phi... or just Alpha in general.

I've seen I LOVΣ CΦLLEGΕ, TAKΣ ΦVΕR, and ROLΣ MΦDΕL for us on T-shirts. We don't usually incorporate our letters into anything.

We do use the term SigEpic a good amount, though.

The Delta Gamma chapter on our campus had recruitment shirts reading "GLΔMOΓOUS" and I believe Sigma Delta Tau had something like " ΣΔT Your Heart Out.”

The SigEps here have a shirt that says REΣΦΕCT on them.

That's pretty cool using SPE that way (even though it's really SFE but most SigEps don't say that). From an outsider's point of view, though, it'd look like REEOEECT.
