But no really, it can be hard to get our colors to match, and pretty much impossible to wear them both without looking funny.

And the Gamma Phis on our campus would probably have objected too.

Disagree X1000. It's all about the right shades. Maroon and lavender can go together. I see it in stores all the time.

And as for Gamma Phi, brown is cool right now. Maybe not 10-15 years ago, but brown, especially with pink, is very in.

Back to the original topic, I saw a SK retro Barbie themed bid day shirt. It said "Every girl's dream house" on it or something. Cute.

Oh no, our colors are lovely together, but try decorating a room in it and finding all the same colors in balloons, clothing and other decor. Not totally impossible, but difficult. And for a whole week! Oh man. (Also I think I was envisioning maroon pants and lavender shirts, not a shirt with the colors together and black pants or something.)

And I was referring to the fact that although commonly used, pink is not an official Gamma Phi color and if every chatper just used their official colors, we wouldn't all be thrilled

I think you can get away with the T-shirts. We had a Curious George Bid Day shirt and a Madeline Crush Party shirt. They were cute. I just don't think it works for a theme.

So if there is no way to not work with this theme...use it as a way to promote and display that Barbie has had many careers (just like your members), lots of friends all over the world (just like our orgs. do) and she's kept up with the times without going out of style (like sororities).

This would also be a great way to use Aqua as your theme music, because Scandinavian 1990s pop music doesn't get enough air time any more. "HI PNMs! HI SISTERS! Want to join a sorority? SURE WE DO! Sign up! I'm an Alpha Gam Girl, in an Alpha Gam World, life with girls, squirrels and pearls. Red, buff, and green, we're always on the scene, double roses, and a fern. COME ON ALPHA GAMS LET"S GET SQUIRRELY!"

If any chapter of Alpha Gam ever uses this theme and song, provide me with proof and I'll make a donation to Foundation in your honor.
