Alpha Chi Omega- I like their musical history and their lyre badge. I like how inclusive they were in my campus.

Alpha Delta Pi- I like their colors (azure and white) and their lion mascot. Back when I rushed, ADPi were described as some of the prettiest girls in campus.

Alpha Epsilon Phi- I like their motto "Multa corda, una causa".

Alpha Gamma Delta- I like their philanthropy, since I do have various relatives with diabetes.

Alpha Omicron Pi- I like how elegant their letters look. Pandas are cool.

Alpha Phi- They share two letters with my GLO. And I know someone who was an Alpha Phi in college.

Alpha Sigma Alpha- I like their Exemplars.

Alpha Sigma Tau- I like how their motto encourages self-reliance.

Alpha Xi Delta- I like their intellectual and scholarly focus, which is reflected in their motto "The pen is mightier than the sword". I like their Quill magazine.

Chi Omega- For some reason, I really liked Chi O when I went through rush 10 years ago. I had heard various things about them- but they did not prevent me from liking it.

Delta Delta Delta- I like their mascot- the dolphin. I love dolphins and other marine mammals.

Delta Gamma- When the booklet about Rush first arrived to my house before my freshman year, the only name in it that stood out enough for me to remember was Delta Gamma. And their badge is gorgeous.

Delta Phi Epsilon- One of its colors is purple, which is my favorite color. One of their philanthropies is anorexia nervosa, which I have witnessed a close relative go through.

Delta Zeta- I like their mascot. Turtles are cute. Very original to have a reptile mascot.

Gamma Phi Beta- I like how helpful and open they are about Alumnae Initiation. I like their website. I like their philanthropy and how many notable alumnae they have. I like the Hebrew letters on the badge.

Kappa Alpha Theta- It has so many famous alumnae in so many fields. It had one of the highest GPAs at my undergrad school.

Kappa Delta- I like their philanthropy: I was a Girl Scout myself for 5 years. I like their flower: the white rose.

Kappa Kappa Gamma- one of my pledge brothers was a Kappa. Athena is one of two Greco-Roman goddesses I identify with the most. I like blue.

Phi Mu- I like pink. I like the quatrefoil. I love their lion mascot. I knew many people who belonged to Phi Mu at my school. And I had a strange dream that the Phi Mu house in my school had jacuzzis and spas and an oasis inside it.

Phi Sigma Sigma- If I remember correctly, at my school (before I enrolled) they had the local mascot of the penguin. One of my best friends just adores penguins.

Pi Beta Phi- I think their original name of "I C Sorosis" is so cool. They had one of the most beautiful houses in my campus.

Sigma Delta Tau- I like the Star of David in their crest.

Sigma Kappa- I like the dove. My surname means dove. I like the colors. Their philanthropy is quite original as well as inclusive. I like their intellectual focus. At my campus they had the most honor students of any sorority. Their website is very informative and extremely well organized.

Sigma Sigma Sigma- I like their colors: purple and white look lovely. I LOVE the doll collection: I'm a fellow doll collector myself.

Theta Phi Alpha- I like their Catholic background, the helmet in the crest, and their philanthropy and patron. And I just found out they have the penguin mascot (but they were not at UF). EDIT- Theta Phi Alpha is now my home. I love my sisters SO MUCH!!!!!!!

Zeta Tau Alpha- I really like their philanthropy. A close relative of mine is a breast cancer survivor, so I admire how much work they do to help the Susan G. Komen foundation. I was in a class with a girl who eventually became the president of Zeta at my school, and she was always very nice to me.

I know more about some sororities than others because at my undergrad school there were only 16 of them.

Alpha Chi Omega- During recruitment, I was initally drawn to AChiO because of their history in the college of music, and of course being a feminist, I like that they support victims of domestic violence. AChiO has one of the prettiest badges in the NPC!

Alpha Delta Pi- ADPi is very cool. I like that their letters represent each phase of membership (Alpha=NM, represents the beginning; Delta=collegiate, represents change; Pi=alumna, the number pi goes on forever). I wonder if that was intentional or accidental, since their original greek letters where Alpha Delta Phi, whichI presume came from the word "Adelphean." I like that they have "prides." One of my good friends is an ADPi at her school, and the ADPis at my school are very down-to-earth. I prefed here.

Alpha Epsilon Phi- Ruth Bader Ginsburg is an AEPhi, and I love to see women in power!

Alpha Gamma Delta- I like the "stoplight" letters that some chapters wear.

Alpha Omicron Pi- Lots of girls from my HS are AOPis at my school.

Alpha Phi- I like their Red Dress campaign. After all, heart disease is the number one killer of women!

Alpha Sigma Alpha-I like that everything is in twos or fours. Four exemplars, four colors, four points on the badge, four aims, two jewels (for NMs and initiated members), two flowers (fall and spring).

Alpha Sigma Tau- I found out that one of my favorite English teachers from high school is an AST.

Alpha Xi Delta- We don't have AXiD at my school anymore, BUT they still own their house. They actually let female transfer students live there. I hope they come back in the near future! 3 women in my SK fam are AXiD legacies; sometimes we joke that we're the AXiD legacy fam.

Chi Omega- After 8th grade, I met this girl at summer camp named Allyson, who looks EXACTLY like my friend Celia from home. I keep in touch with both of them (they go to different schools and have never met), but I thought it was funny that they both joined ChiO.

Delta Delta Delta- Yeah for New England-founded sororities, especially BU! I like that TriDelt's founders wanted to create a society that would focus on a woman's character instead of outward appearance. Their badge is also very pretty.

Delta Gamma- I prefed here. The DGs at my school are very diverse and chill. I liked their preference ceremony with the orchid leis, and I gather that a lot of DG chapters do that. I also like the anchor/nautical theme that they have going. Whenever they have grilled cheese sales, they make at least $500 for their philanthropy each time they have a sale, and rightfully so, because they make the best damned grilled cheese in town.

Delta Phi Epsilon- Esse quam videri- To be rather than seem to be. Can't get much more real than that.

Delta Zeta- Pretty colors!

Gamma Phi Beta- They were founded nationally 2 days after my sorority was founded nationally.

Kappa Alpha Theta- Theta has some really awesome alumnae, and my faves are Dian Fossey (Gorillas in the Mist) and Sheryl Crow. I like their colors, since I am a Steelers fan, and their badge is GORGEOUS!

Kappa Delta- This was my first real exposure to sororities. One of my best friends from high school told me at the beginning of freshman year (in college) that she pledged KD. Of course I had no idea what she meant, but she told me all about it, and sparked my interest. I like the dagger on their badge, and the fact that they work closely with the Girl Scouts (Can't start recruiting too early...why not tap into the largest organization for women in the nation?).

Kappa Kappa Gamma- I know several Kappas personally even though we don't have them at my school.

Phi Mu- Phi Mu has pretty colors and the quatrefoil is pretty and unique.

Phi Sigma Sigma- The American Beauty Rose. It makes me think of the best movie ever made.

Pi Beta Phi- Jennifer Garner! I also like the colors and arrow badge, esp the one with garnets and aquamarine!

Sigma Delta Tau- Their jewel is very unique--lapis lazuli.

Sigma Kappa- I must say I am a bit partial, because this is my sorority! So obviously, I love everything about it. Fun fact for the non-SKs out there though--Sarah Weddington aka "Jane Roe's" attorney in Roe v. Wade, a Sigma Kappa, was the youngest woman to argue and win a supreme court case! Regardless of your stance on abortion, that is something to be proud of.

Sigma Sigma Sigma- I think it's interesting that a lot of their symbols are the same as us (Sigma Kappa), and similar colors. Triangle badge, pearl, violet, shades of purple, Triangle magazine...it makes me wonder if by some strange coincedence their ritual is similar to ours. I love the skull on the badge. Very Pirates. I could see the box being ful of TriSigma badges in stead of gold coins.

Theta Phi Alpha- Penguins are AWESOME, and my little's friend from HS is a Theta Phi.

Zeta Tau Alpha- One thing that I think is cute about Zeta is that they refer to COR events as "crown" events. Crown chair, crown event, we crowned a girl during informal recruitment, etc. Also, I saw one of their badges, the one in WG with pink sapphires...wow! Also, two Zetas that I met during my first semester influenced me to go through recruitment. Turquoise is one of my favorite colors.

Alpha Chi Omega- I love their philanthropy for victims of domestic violence. I also remember when I attended University of North Florida and I saw the AXO girls. I thought they were just awesome and had this sisterhood that I just loved.

Alpha Delta Pi- First. Finest. Forever!!!! Yay!! What can I say? I love them.

Alpha Epsilon Phi- How could you not like a sorority represented by a giraffe?

Alpha Gamma Delta- The colors are so fun. It reminds me of being a kid.

Alpha Omicron Pi- I was just looking at the website and I learned something. I did not know that one of the symbols was the wheat. I like the connection that it has to the new member pin being the sheaf. That is cool.

Alpha Phi- I like one of your flowers, the lily of the valley. It is so pretty.

Alpha Sigma Alpha- I like that the org abides by the ideals of Christ, Saint Valentine, Hermes, and King Asa. I wonder if Asa has anything to do with the naming of the sorority...

Alpha Sigma Tau- I like that they have different pins for women who have been members for 25 and 50 years.

Alpha Xi Delta- I love teddy bears!

Chi Omega- Your colors are awesome. And I love everything about the sorority. There is so much history and ideals that fascinate me.

Delta Delta Delta- I like the initiated member pin.

Delta Gamma- I love the colors and the cream colored rose.

Delta Phi Epsilon- The open motto: To be rather than seem to be.

Delta Zeta- The turtle is so cute!!

Gamma Phi Beta- I think it is cool that GPhiB was the first to use the word 'sorority'.

Kappa Alpha Theta- Theta is one of my favorite sororities. And you get Sheryl Crow as a famous member!

Kappa Delta- I think that the open motto: "Let us strive for that which is honorable, beautiful, and highest." is beautiful.

Kappa Kappa Gamma- When I think of Kappas, I think of class. And the colors are awesome.

Phi Mu- I love the creed and believe that it should represent all women.

Phi Sigma Sigma- I was looking at the symbols and I noticed a somewhat Eqyptian theme. That is cool.

Pi Beta Phi- Thank goodness there was no chapter at my school. It may have given a very hard decision to make. I know I ended up where I was meant to be, but I sure do love those Pi Beta Phis!

Sigma Delta Tau- Your website is stunning!

Sigma Kappa- Lavender is my favorite color!

Sigma Sigma Sigma- I know other sororities have the skull and crossbones symbol, but for Tri Sigma, I like that it goes with their open motto "Faithful Unto Death".

Theta Phi Alpha- The badge is beautiful.

Zeta Tau Alpha- The whole sorority is beautiful. It has the princess feel...obviously having to do with the the five pointed crown. I just like Zeta girls. They are really proud of their sorority.

ΑΧΩ-I love the badge. It's very, very unique.

ΑΔΠ-I know ADPi's and personally I think they set a great example for others to follow as far as sisterhood goes. They seem to really be close to each other and appreciate each other. I think they really exemplify their motto: "We live for each other."

ΑΕΦ-I think the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS foundation is extremely relevant today since AIDS has become a world epidemic. It's also cool that the foundation was started by a sister who turned her personal tragedy into a way to help the entire world.

AΓΔ-Well, I'm obviously prejudiced. I love my girls, I love that we're the squirrels (even if it's hard to find stuffed squirrels or squirrel jewelry), and I think we are pretty diverse. We were also the first to adopt a philanthropy, the first to have a non-caucasian initiate, and have the widest span of chapters. And we have a chapter in Hawaii! She's yours, she's mine, she's an Alpha Gam girl!

ΑΟΠ-Four of my favorite people are AOPi's, including my cousin. They're all really awesome girls, so I think that reflects on the sorority. I also love the pandas. They're so cute.

AΦ-I love their creed. It starts with "I believe in my fraternity", and I think that's essential to any good sisterhood.

AΣΑ-(I know that isn't gold, but it's the closest there is here.) I like the idea of the four exemplars. It just seems like a really good idea and a good way to pick role models to strive to be like.

ΑΣΤ
-Habitat for Humanity is such a great philanthropy, and I bet this means they have to go out and get their hands dirty sometimes. It's a really rewarding way to help someone in need.
ΑΞΔ-I know it's corny, but I'm in love with their colors. I also love "The Pen is Mightier than the Sword".

ΧΩ-I know Chi O has a great national reputation. They're really great girls on our campus, and that's who I preffed. I think they have a good amount of diversity here, and they just really seem to always present themselves in the best possible way, which is really admirable.
ΔΔΔ-I hope that's the right kind of blue! It's one of the coolest badges I've seen. Top five. I also love the dolphin...it's one of my favorite animals.

ΔΓ-I like the anchor...it's a strong symbol, I think. I also think it's seriously cool that they actually have their own kind of flower.
ΔΦΣ-That's the colors of my school...cool! And I have to say I looooovvveeee the unicorn mascot!

ΔΖ-I really like that their creed is addressed "To the world...". It's nice to have people bond in the common purpose of making the world a better place.

ΓΦΒ-Did you know the Doublement twins were Gamma Phi Beta's? That's awesome!

ΚΑΘ-Gotta love the kite! And the first women admitted to Phi Beta Kappa were Thetas.

ΚΔ-Well, my mom, aunts, cousin, and I think a grand-aunt are KD's, so I like them, obviously. I'm a little prejudiced to liking them!

ΚΚΓ-The first to set up women's service centers. They also have the key as their badge, which is really cool.

ΦΜ-The Phi Mus I know are very dedicated to their organization, which I think reflects on Phi Mu as a whole.

ΦΣΣ-The sphinx is a really awesome mascot. They were the only sorority without ritual based in scripture when they began.

ΠΒΦ-I think it's cool that they own the property where they began, the Holt House. That's an priceless part of their history that their members can enjoy in the future.

ΣΔΤ-I like that they were begun in response to "closed doors" with the intention to run an organization more respectful of individuality.

ΣΚ-The study of aging and being involved with Alzheimer's disease is really impressive and unique.

ΣΣΣ-The sailboat and the skull and cross bones on the badge are very unique and cool. The doll collection is also really, really cool and is a great way to record history.

ΘΦΑ-The compass is a great symbol for many reasons...and penguins. You HAVE to love penguins.

ΖΤΑ
-The crown is a great symbol, and the badge is gorgeous. Breast cancer is also a great disease to fight because it is so prevelant, especially among women. I didn't realize the "think pink" slogan I'd seen was actually registered to ZTA!

I love this thread by the way! I learned a lot about all these sororities...things I definitely never knew before.

since a couple of people have asked about it

For those who are wondering what Gamma Phi's color "mode" is, it's light brown. I've been told that technically "mode" is any lighter shade of a true color, but I don't know if that's correct. Anyway, basically our formal colors are dark and light brown, with pink added as an informal color. The brown colors come from a professor at Syracuse (Dr. Brown) who let Gamma Phi use his study for their first meetings.

Alpha Gam's Squirrel

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:

"In the days when Gamma (Wesleyan Univ - Middletown CT) 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 name, they received the suggestion, and the little squirrel, typical frequenter of autumn haunts, was chosen as the mascot...Our little 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."

Unfortunately, Gamma Chapter is now inactive..but you never know when a Gamma squirrel will pop up again!

Thanks! I made it just brown on my post...there's not even two brown selections.

That's really cool though...and I have to say I love the combination of pink and brown.

Your pledge brother was a Kappa? What? Kappa is a women's fraternity. Your statement confuses me in so many ways!

She's a member of Alpha Phi Omega, a coed service org that calls all members brother regardless of sex (at least some chapters...correct me if I'm wrong!) Her "Kappa" brother is your Kappa Kappa Gamma sister. I'll post later today with my list of likes. This is really a great thread in line with the great Panhellenic spirit!

Here I go

Alpha Chi Omega- Love the music sorority background

Alpha Delta Pi- My Latin teacher is HS is a ADPi, she always talks positively of her experience. There is so much to her character that I have always strove to emulate.

Alpha Gamma Delta- Fellow Syracuse triad, love the work done by Alpha Gam for Juvenile Diabetes, seeing as diabetes runs in my family on both sides

Alpha Omicron Pi- I have a lot of friends in AOII, I like how chapter designations are not alphabetically and how each chapter is given the freedom to choose their own letters and sub motto.

Alpha Phi-Another syracuse triad, I like how you pronounce phi differently

Chi Omega-I love your colors. Such beautiful colors must have a beautiful meaning. Also my favorite animal is the owl.

Delta Delta Delta-I love the crescent moon. at my school, Univ. Alabama, I like how the chapter house is a series of cylinders

Delta Gamma- Don't know a lot, but all the DGs I know have been very bubbly and fun

Delta Zeta- I think speech and hearing philanthropy is neat

Gamma Phi Beta- Where do I start?

Kappa Alpha Theta- I like how since Walt Disney's daughters were Thetas, he added the song "Let's Go Fly a Kite" to the film Mary Poppins

Kappa Delta- I love how they seek to inspire and positively influence young girls through Girl Scouts in the same way Gamma Phi works with Campfire USA

Kappa Kappa Gamma- I really think KKG has interesting symbols in the owl, fleur di lis, Iris and the key

Phi Mu-love the pink carnation, and the quatrefoil as a symbol is very neat

Pi Beta Phi- I like how the true meaning of the phrase I.C Sorosis was only known by the founding members

Zeta Tau Alpha- The Philanthropy of Breast Cancer Awareness is very admirable, since everybody will experience the effects of breast cancer whether one is diagnosed or knows somebody who will. I also like the rumor about ZTA secrets in the disney film the Little Mermaid

Sorry I didn't post more, I am not familiar with everyone, that said I am not comfortable making comments "lyk OMG ABC has the cutest tshirts where I go to school" when I get done doing more research I may post more on here.

Alpha Chi Omega - I am woman -- hear me roar! I've always thought of Alpha Chis as extremely strong women. My close friend, Lynn, and my stepmother, Betsy, are both Alpha Chis and they both ROCK!

Alpha Delta Pi - The quintessential "ladies" -- full of elegance, grace and beauty. I have such respect for them.

Alpha Epsilon Phi - My best friend of 34 years and my mom's best friend of 38 years are both AEPhis and they are trully amazing women. I love both of them dearly.

Alpha Gamma Delta - Have you read their Purpose? It's phenomenal!!

Alpha Omicron Pi - I've never come across an AOII who wasn't full of warmth and friendliness.

Alpha Phi - Last year a group of my friends (all Greeks) were very warmly welcomed into their headquarters and given a tour. It was great. We got to see their collection of old "lazy phi" pins, which are so gorgeous!

Alpha Sigma Alpha - Farmville love to ASA! I love their creed.

Alpha Sigma Tau - They support Habitat for Humanity -- one of my very favorite charities.

Alpha Xi Delta - I just have a great affection for AXiD, always have. Yay, Fuzzies!

Chi Omega - The owl! What a great mascot.

Delta Delta Delta - Ida Shaw Martin -- probably one of the most influential women in NPC history!

Delta Gamma - The anchor is such a beautiful symbol.

Delta Phi Epsilon - Denise! I love that they were founded at a law school.

Delta Zeta - I've always found this sorority to be very intriguing. (Also, I had a pet turtle as a kid. Yay, turtles!)

Gamma Phi Beta - Crescents! Love them -- a beautiful symbol.

Kappa Alpha Theta - "Kappa Alpha Theta, Kappa Alpha Theta, Kappa Alpha Theta, WOOOOO!" More than 20 years after going through Rush, I still can't get that chant out of my mind. Now, that's powerful!

Sigma Delta Tau - I'll always have a special place in my heart for these wonderful women.

Sigma Sigma Sigma - Ms_Gwyn!!!!! Super Farmville Four love for Tri Sigma. KD and Tri Sigma share such a close founding history, I feel like they are our "sister sorority" and I just love that. When I think of Tri Sigma, I think; intelligence, warmth, and femininity at it's very best.

Theta Phi Alpha - As a Catholic, I can't help but be intrigued by TPA. I'd love to learn more about them. I love the compass symbol. (even though I don't know it's private meaning)

Zeta Tau Alpha - More Farmville Four love! ZTA, in my opinion, is just the coolest sorority (aside from my own, lol). I love that KD and ZTA have teamed up lately. You wouldn't believe the excitement at KD's National Leadership Conference a few years ago when the ZTA's came to join us. It was trully inspiring. This sorority ROCKS!!!!
