Hand signs

I used to have the first Sisters but I think I lost it in one of our many moves...I really need to get them again.
I love the Phi!
Does it say what campus this was from?

Most of my books are still packed, so I'm not sure. It may have been in one of the Loyally volumes, too. But as MysticCat has so kindly pointed out, it had to be a chapter between 1905-1913.

And one not at an all-female school, so based on the time-line at The Wiki, that would seem to narrow it to just four possibilities -- Delta (Texas, 1906), Epsilon (Sophie Newcomb College of Tulane, 1906), Upsilon (Washington State, 1912) or Tau (Kansas, 1912).

Given that Kappa Alpha Order is also on the chart, I think that would further narrow it down to Tulane or Texas. And since Zeta Tau Alpha chartered at Texas in 1906 (the same year as ADPi) and didn't charter at Tulane until 1927, I'm going with Texas.

I know of several sororities which have ritual hand signs. I also know the Gamma Phi whistle.
