There's also the relatively new "Heart of Alpha Gamma Delta" dangle that alumnae chapters/clubs can award to any alumnae which can be worn with one of the Honors. IC wears their dangle with their Honor too.

Yes, I forgot to say that International Council members have a special dangle. It's three annulets on a bend, per our coat of arms. (=three rings on a rectangle)

If I wore all the dangles I'm entitled to, I wouldn't be able to stand upright.

I only got the dangles for Panhellenic Representative (because it's the highest office I held) and Ritualist (because it was the most meaningful office to me).

I would have gotten webmaster too, but I don't think a webmaster dangle existed back then. The Web barely existed.

I don't own any dangles yet....(basically because I'm poor and have no money to get all of them) but I would have:

VP Membership
VP Member Education
Honor Board
Big Sis (I'd have that one 4 times if I needed to get one for each)
Panhellenic Council Member
Scholarship Pearl
...and i think a couple more but i can't think of them off the top of my head right now.

I'm working on the Lamp of Knowledge (like whitedaisy said it is for 4.0 members) since this is my last semester to get it and I've missed it the past couple times because of our stupid plus and minus system.....

I have a question? do you have to buy your own dangles or does your chapter buy them?

My chapter buys each incoming Eboard Officer her Dangle. Each committee head, has to buy her own; if she chooses to buy one.

On my campus we are the only GLO that wears a chapter guard and dangles. I can't remember if nearby phi sig chapters wear theirs. *paging Glitter650* But I do know some chapters that don't wear chapter guards. Our chapter orders them with our jeweled badge.

on my badge I have each dangle on a link of the chain instead of the "droopy" effect. I get compliments on it all the time.

Here's what is on mine:
Marshall dangle
MRC= recruitment dangle
Bursar= treasurer key
Archon's gavel= president's gavel
Parent's Club Committee Head

I wasn't going to get the Parent's Club dangle but the dangle is two connecting hearts. super cute. I love it.

I'm still waiting for my big sis dangle and PR dangle

and I also have my Rose Bud Society Pin that I wear underneath my badge. Its a red rose pin and its for members who donate to foundation. my first payment was $20. This year I will pay $25 or something like that, and one last payment next year. But I can keep going so I can get more (i.e. really pretty) pins.

We bought our own dangles in my chapter, so it's good that I'm more of an Indian than a chief...I only have 4 dangles on my guard. I have:

*Member-At-Large
*Big Sis
*Guard
*Scholarship (4.0) Pearl...I only ended up buying one of those, because they're sort of big

I was a delegate on a Panhellenic Committee one year, but I'm not really sure if they make a dangle for that. Also, to the DZs--do we need to belong to an actual alum chapter to get the alum dangle? Some of our alums have it, but they're not really active in the local chapter.

I wear my dangles in the droopy way and never thought of having one dangle per chain link -- I may have to get that done!

I need to update my dangles but I have 2 alumnae chapter president dangles (I need two more) and 2 convention dangles. I need Alumnae Panhellenic Representative, Alumnae Corresponding Secretary, Alumnae Communications, Alumnae Publicity, and several more...

I like wearing my chapter guard - because it holds the dangles and so others know what chapter I am from.

Nope, you don't need to belong to an alum chapter to wear the dangle

My chapter of Phi Sig is like PrincessHeathers. We have our chapter guard and do wear our dangles on them. Most of the sisters who have dangles let them all bunch on the bottom. I prefer to have them on individual links so that they can be seen better.

The dangles I have are

Founding Chapter sister
Membership Orientation Chair (Now sisterhood development)
Archons gavel
Webmistress
Scholarship pearl - must be junior or higher with 2 consecutive semesters of 3.5 or higher gpa
Alumnae Chair
Convention dangle
Leadership for attending Leadership training school
I will be getting the Scribe's dangle at the end of my term
Hopefully one of my Sapphire Sisters will get me the Sapphire Sister dangle

My guard and dangles are the same way...I made sure to put each dangle in a different loop of the guard's chain, so they didn't slide around and get all tangled.

I have the dangles for every office I ever held, which were:
*Pride leader
*Music chair
*Spirit chair
*Historian
*Recording secretary
*MEVP (Membership Education VP)

I also have the two scholarship balls (one gold, one pearl) for a semester of 3.5 and above, and the other for a 4.0 semester, as well as the 150th Anniversary dangle to commemmorate our founding (I was a collegiate when the 150th Anniversary took place) and my diamond sister dangle, which is probably my most treasured dangle because I love my diamond to pieces!

I have gotten so many compliments on my badge when I wear it with all the dangles...people are curious as to what they all mean, and it's a great way to tell them about ADPi!

Hmmm....well, I don't have anything other than my chapter guard and my Order of Omega badge, but I've become very interested in getting some dangles. Our advisor is the only one in our chapter who wears hers, so I'd be a bit of a trendsetter...gotta prepare myself for that, you know.

As far as scholarship...we get a dangle from Nationals for earning a 4.0. This semester, I started a Panhellenic program whereby if you earn a 3.8 or above, you receive a charm/dangle in the shape of your org's mascot. I'm kinda excited about that---they're different from most dangles, and pretty cute, IMHO. I just ordered the first batch (for Fall 2003 grades) and I can't wait till they come in.
