Either the trend will die out and be replaced by something different (way back when, sororities used to have their own individual whistles that members used to recognize one another, or other hand signals that are no longer used) or it will be accepted and one singular "symbol" will be designated - though still not as part of our ritual.

There's apparently a petition going around to get HQ to reconsider. Oh my. Glad I'm only serving on a local level.
FWIW - I think we *technically* still have a whistle. I couldn't tell you what it is, though.
ETA: I am totally cracking up at all the current actives' comments about throwing away "long-standing" traditions.
