My mother's cousin married a Gamma Phi, and I think I've mentioned a certain photo of her from her college years. She went to UCLA (I think), and there's a photo of her and some of her sisters all sitting on the wings of a plane. It's a really cool photo, and I think it may have appeared in a Gamma Phi publication. Her maiden name is Louise Coffman (?) - she would be 95? We lost touch after my mother died.
But it was a wonderful photo!
This isn't the photo, as they truly were sitting on the wings, but is still Gamma Phis with a plane:

That looks like the photo that appears in publications/historical references to the millions of dollars in war bonds sold by Gamma Phis during WWII.

My goddaughter (her mom is my Chi O big sis) preffed Chi O and Theta at UC Davis.
She got her bid Sunday morning and is now a ...
Theta
Her mother & I heard in our ears the Price Is Right sound for the losing contestants.
Her mom & I are a little sad, but GD (goddaughter) is happy as a clam (or, I guess, a kite).
All the owl items I had been stock-piling will continue to be stock-piled -- hopefully for GD2.
But now GD2 will be a triple-threat legacy: Chi O, Kappa, Theta.
