Omicron and Omega literally mean "little (micro) O" and "big (mega) O."

Ha! I hear it pronounced Ohh-micron more frequently than anything else!

There's really no point in posting the pronunciation because there are a few letters (like Xi and Phi) that some of us are going to say different no matter what.

I made this video for the girls in my chapter. Did I share it on here before? I dunno, but this thread is a good place: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByLl8Gok9o4

We originally sang it like that for a Beach Theme party, and decided to keep it.

Haha yep, that's me! I'm such a nerd. I made that after I came home from the formal pledging ceremony for new members. I put the words over my face so it's not quite as awkward.

Everyone in my pledge classed loved this video:

even though almost every letter is mispronounced and the beat is terrible. It is catchy so beware.
