And I guess it bears saying again: Different GLOs have different policies about non-members wearing letters. We should all be following the policies of our own GLOs regarding our letters and not worry about other org's policies and letters.
Vito wasn't talking about event t-shirts (for mixers, Greek week, what have you). He was talking about a screen printed t-shirt with nothing but Greek letters on it and why that would be OK for nonmembers to wear, but stitched letters are verboten.

k_s (and everyone), a shirt that says "Rush XYZ" or a button that says "I heart XYZ" is different from a shirt with ONLY the Greek letters on it. The first does not imply membership, the second does (whether it's stitched, screen printed or written in blood). I'm hoping the stuff katydid KD was talking about in her post a page or two down had a "rush" qualifier on it.
