Couldn't wear mine today since my job requires me to wear scrubs but I posted a picture of my badge on my facebook page and a couple coworkers asked about it.

I pulled out my quill, removed the guard (my old eyes just are not making that happen) and proceeded to NOT put it on. I will wear it tomorrow!

TPA85, I normally wear scrubs everyday as well, but since I am a supervisor, I have the option to wear regular clothes. So, today, I chose to wear dress pants and a sweater so that I could sport my badge. The scrubs we wear in Pathology & Laboratory Medicine service are purple. Since my Baylor Lady Bears were scheduled to play Kansas State (whose color is purple) tonight in their final conference game of the season, I had already planned to wear something other than my scrubs, so it worked out well for me =)

P.S. I wore my badge yesterday, but it was covered by my jacket. I even wore my badge to P.E.O. last night, rather than my P.E.O. emblem.

I didn't wear my badge. Sadly, I discovered my fingers didn't work well enough to work the clasp. Stupid RA, but I wore it in spirit!

you need the necklace holder so you don't have to deal with the dang clasp. Hope your flair goes away quickly!

Wore my fab new opal badge today. Got asked about it by 4 students (which must mean they're blinded by the opals, or that they're slow - as I wear a badge at least twice a week)






I'll get it fixed someday when I come across a great estate jeweler, but for now, I love it as is

Yes, I received it when Doctor D did and our badges are pretty much from the same era, but this is mine, with my Crescent.

The Arc with Diamonds has two diamonds, spaced on the arc so one is near each end of the arc itself.

The heart dangle is a Heart of Alpha Gamma Delta award that an alumnae chapter or club can get for a member they want to recognize locally. The Honors of Epsilon Pi require a petition and are awarded based on those petitions. The Heart of Alpha Gamma Delta is a less formal process.

Thank you I do too. My heart and soul went into earning that Crescent! Each sister who received a Crescent at Convention this summer is someone for whom I have much love and respect and have worked with for over a decade. It was a very special night that is in my top 10 Alpha Gam memories. It is a more rare and special honor and I got to share that night with sisters who are very special to me.

I was proud to sport my key to class and to see other girls who took the time to dress up and put on their badges. We had a Zeta, Gamma Phi, Alpha Gam and KKG (me!) wearing them in my 8 am Econ class where we were thrilled to learn our professor was a KD!

Did your prof have her Badge on?


I truly envy you ladies who are allowed to put their Badges on holders and make necklaces out of them. I would get a lot more use out of my Badge if I could do that!

Same here. I would love to be able to wear my badge as a pendant (I don't think it would work as a ring) and I think my NM pin would look great as either a pendant or a ring - but we are expressly forbidden to turn either badges or NM pins into any other type of jewelry.

Yup, I still have my NM pin. We had to buy them, but we got to keep them after initiation - at least that was the way my chapter did things. But it's gathering dust in my jewelry box. I haven't been a NM in *mumble* years, so if I want to wear official jewelry, it's gonna be my badge. I would sooo wear my NM pin as a pendant if I had the option, though.

She was wearing her KD badge! It was so cool to see how much the sorority meant to her even twenty years out of college and I think it gave us a great perspective that our Greek affiliations last beyond the four years of undergrad.
