At the University of Tulsa, members of the sororities and fraternities get “Jerseys” in TU colors, no matter what their GLO colors are. They wear blue shirts with gold letters so they can wear them to athletic events to support the University as well as their GLO.

That's a cool idea!

Back in the day, each sorority had a white satin jacket style, and most of the members wound up getting the jackets. Your letters were on the back in your colors. Delta Zeta had pink, and Phi Sigma Sigma had blue (pretty color) but everyone else had white. I remember being excited about being able to get my jacket (although I never wound up getting one) when I came back from my first rush party.

I know 33girl's school had them around the same time...not sure about when she was there. There's a recruitment story from Clarion where the girl talks about the jackets. She either pledged the same year I did, or the year after.

We still incorporate our cardinal by doing a double letter (red X & O under gold letters) so it looks like a red outline on the gold X & O. Kappa Sig and Pike do the same. KA does a white outline. Tri Delta and Sigma Chi are already there. (It probably started with DDD and Sigma Chi wearing their jerseys to games and everyone followed.)
