do any alumni wear letters?

[PKT4LIFE]

Yes!

[AOII Angel]

I wear convention t-shirts, an AOII Foundation arthritis t-shirt as well as a cute t-shirt from our Memphis alum chapter on a pretty regular basis on weekends. I just won a super cute grey sweatshirt with "Exceed the Expectation" boldly printed on the front. I can't wait to add that to my collection. I'm more likely to wear a badge than letters during the week since I dress up everyday. I need to do it more often since I have so many beautiful badges to choose from.

P.S. AOIILisa and Alpha O, I cannot condone the use of pepto pandas!

I usually wear my letters (sweatshirt, t-shirt & hat) when I go to the gym, go hiking and bike riding. You would be amazed how many fellow Greeks wear their letters to the gym.

Would this be wearable at the pool/beach over a bathing suit?

I have 2 apo paddles (necklace size)
2 apo tshirt.
2 line jackets.

I'd wear it more, but I don't get the chance to. So I wear it when I get the chance.

The only thing that is usually ok with dress code is the paddles. And the line jackets are mostly good for the winter otherwise it's just way too hot to wear it.

At 45, I wear letters shirts, event shirts or sweatshirts as often as I want, and if someone wants to think I am trying to "relive my college days," they are welcome to think!!

It's amazing how many AXiDs I meet at conferences, ComiCons, shopping malls, trains in London, airport in Toronto...........

Yep, I'm 61 and wear my letters whenever I can. My husband recently bought a Jaguar convertible and I needed a hat. His car is British Racing Green, my hat is a deep green with Red letters and a Buff stripe.

At 73, every chance I get and then some! I am proud to wear my letters as much as possible! Amazing how many people I meet who ask what they mean or fellow GLO's!

Makes me feel good!!!!

I am not just a part time Alumni!

I don't my wear letters when it comes to t-shirts - I just don't feel "professional" since I moved past that stage of my life, no offense to those do wear theirs. Polos, maybe, but in the end leaning to "no." The closest I'll get to actually wearing my letters if were on a hoodie or sweatshirt, but I'd only wear it for lounging.

I do hold my pledge & member pin with great dearness and would like them to become heirloom pieces for my future children. In saying that, I was thinking buying my fraternity's flag. I graduated five years ago, but the nostalgia has hit me as I reflect on my college years, and I would like to hang it somewhere in my studio if I ever choose to do so.

Midwest, I do not take offense to your comment, but I am saddened by it! I was initiated into my sorority almost 21 years ago, and I still wear letters/regalia! For me, Alpha Sigma Tau was not a stage in my life; she is a huge part of my life. I've made sure that I continued with AST as an alumna - it truly IS for life if you want it to be. I am lucky to serve as a chapter advisor, and I am also involved (currently vp) of an alumnae Panhellenic association. These two activities alone give me reason to wear my letters/regalia at events. But I don't exclusively wear them in the circumstances. I wear them because I am proud. Plus there are anchors & yellow roses around my house as daily reminders

[When Doves Cry]

I do not because I still look young enough to be in college, and I've come to really hate being mistaken for a college (and even high school!!) student
Maybe in 10 years, I'll start wearing them again! I gave some of them away but kept my favorites

chUCK YEAH, you DDD better be wearing your letters. How else will Chuck know to leave you spared when Chuck comes-a-reapin?
