Do you wear the Lambda Chi ring?

Hello, all! It's been a while!

I can now call you my brothers! I was initiated as a brother of Lambda Chi Alpha in April! I'm still numb from the deep, rich experience.

Lambda Chi is the biggest and most well known fraternity on my campus. My boss, two coworkers, and a couple best friends all wear the Lambda Chi Alpha ring, the gold one that can be found on Herff Jones' website.

It's a real beauty. I am considering getting one. I've had trouble wearing letters because I don't wear tshirts, and a ring seems perfect. I'm hoping to go into student affairs and higher ed, so it would really benefit me to have something to identify me as a Lambda Chi that I can wear with professional dress. Especially in that field.

Do any of you wear the ring? If so, has it struck up conversation about Lambda Chi, or even caused you to meet a brother?

Congratulations my new Brother. I got my ring when I was in college my senior year (1967).
It is a college ring with dark green stone with LXA letters in gold and PSU and date on the sides.
I would wear it to LXA functions except now I cannot wear it because it won't fit.
Yes when I wore it I did get a lot of good comments about it. If I could, you bet I would wear it more~!

I wear one some days to work. Mine is a little bit different than the Herff-Jones Version.

It is a pre-merger gold crest mounted on a rectangle onyx, set in a gold mount. It is quite beautiful and I try to take really good care of it since the crest isnt worn at all and still has most of its detail.

Its my precioussssss

I received the ring your see at Herff Jones, black onyx with the cross and crescent on top. It had, previously, been my older brother’s. He gave it to me after initiation. It was very special, to me. It was stolen in a burglary about 10 years after my undergrad graduation.

Not a Lambda Chi, but as a sorority woman, I will say that many of our alumnae now wear our pins, framed, as necklaces. I wear mine this way all the time and enjoy conversations with those who notice it. It is a great way to wear your fraternity jewelry in a more professional manner and create connections.
