This has been the subject of a lot of threads, but just so everyones clear...our letters can be only in certain places, like the houses, flag, badge, certificate, etc. We only use them on things that are directly involved with the fraternity. The backsides of sweatpants or the partition in a bathroom stall are just not places we feel are appropriate for something we value so much. Im not saying other GLOs dont value their letters, we just have a different way of keeping ours dear to us. Other nations value their flags differently than the United States (some have laws against burning them, others allow them to touch the ground), but the reverence to one's banner is equal. Im sorry if this sounds snappy, but I and other Fijis have had to deal with a lot of insinuation that we arent a 'genuine' GLO.
