I was advising today. and overheard a girl today say (while waiting outside for parties to start) that she was "for sure dropping all the ones with 3 letters because 2 letter sororities look better on shirts." Wow.

Probably the dumbest thing I've heard all week. I sincerely hope she grows up a little when/if she pledges.

If they have Paris Hilton for a role model, they're not. (And trust me, I've seen plenty of those types in my teaching career.)

Like I said, problem solved with 3" letters.

If you get 3" letters, it fits very nicely, but they aren't as widely available as 4" letters.

I think this is soooo funny! I remember thinking the 4" letters were too small. We'd get the 6" letters because they filled out our XL shirts so nicely!!! That way even near sighted people could see us coming a mile away!
As for stupid PNM impressions, I remember visiting the sorority dorm with my sister when I was in high school. AOII was on the bottom floor with Phi Mu. When you walk in the dorm, you can look down the halls and see murals painted on the wall. AOII had a giant rose with a red frame around it. Phi Mu had this massive pink castle which I dubbed the "Magical Pink Castle" and remember telling people looked like someone had vomited Pepto Bismol on Cinderella's Castle. I swore I'd never join such a PINK chapter. In all fairness...they cut me!  If there is significance to the pink castle for Phi Mu...someone clue me in.

Actually, there is significance to it.
First..Pink 
And there is a popular song for sisters called "My Phi Mu Castle" (written actually about the house at Delta Beta - UIUC (for another thread).
It starts out...
I have a Phi Mu Castle
That's filled with treasures old...

Sadly, I've heard this one before. I once overheard a PNM saying this to another one, and (I cannot believe I'm admitting to this!) said, "Honestly, you won't grow a third boob if your sorority has three letters!"
I was so sure I was going to get a rush infraction on that one!

Just for fun I checked out their ADPi chapter to see if maybe this was a school-wide thing. Maybe my screen is off... or maybe it's at a weird angle, but I think it's sort of blue??

No it's definitely blue. It is a school wide thing. KD's house is green. Chi O's house is yellow with red shutters. Theta's house is yellow with black shutters. I love those houses.
