Please tell me the girl went ADPi. Can you imagine family holidays if that girl came home wearing a different pin??

Go to the Amazon!

You can order them at Amazon.com ... I have my own, and it's funny how many Southern things are similar to things in Canada....

Oh, the pressure!!! I thought just being a legacy was bad - for the first time in my life, I'm glad my parents didn't have $10,000 to throw around like that!!!!

2 things:

1. Do you southern ladies actually wear your pin to holiday events and "dressier" gatherings like that? I think that's wonderful! At our last Alumnae Founders day brunch I was the only person of about 20 wearing my badge!

2. Not that this is at all the same, but I remember being in junior high and going to a Homecoming at my mom's college. We went to brunch at the Kappa house and I do remember a lot of the girls and local alum coming over and chatting me up, asking me my college plans! And we were at a Michigan school! (Of course, she always told me I couldn't be a Chi O either, but Kappa wasn't at my school! Sorry, Mom!)

She ended up not going through...she passed away right before she graduated. Very sad story, actually. But she would have made a wonderful ADPi. Lots of friends of mine from Augusta are ADPis.

I ordered mine from Amazon.ca.

NeonPi, I don't really understand what Southern things are similar to things in Canada though? Can you specify?
