True statement.

At Penn State Behrend, we had jackets (the pullovers with front pockets and a light fleece-type lining) and jerseys, which everyone received at initiation. Each sorority’s jackets and jerseys were their “main” color… AST = Green, ASA = Red, TPA = Blue. Before I joined, I remember thinking “Oh, there are the red ones..” or “Those green ones always eat lunch together..” and many (if not all) of my sisters will admit to thinking the same thing. When on a campus where people don’t even know what being Greek is all about, where the majority of the people who join never had any intention of doing so when coming to college, and where chapters can be as small as 10 members, I think it definitely helps.
