Hi Tracy,

The Alpha Gam squirrel does have a name. It's Skiouros, which is the Greek word for Squirrel. Here is a brief description of Skiouros taken from the recent Quarterly on Fraternity Ed Review :

"In the days when Gamma first made the triple colors of red, buff, and green her own, some of her energetic number sought a mascot to symbolize the characteristics of the colors and progress of Alpha Gamma Delta. In the autumn tints, so beautifully dear to us in our song of that anme, they received the suggestion, and the little squirrel, typical frequenter of autumn haunts, was chosen as the mascot...Our ittle friend, we find is also nimble and agile - he leaps from branch to branch and accomplishes much progress...to symbolize the spirit that never dies, the spirit of energetic alertness and progress."

i hope that helps with your daughter!

Nicole
