At my chapter we get a pearl to hang from our guard chain when we get a 4.0-i think it' s the same everywhere.

thanks lyrelyre!
we definitely didn't do that at my chapter. there were a lot of sisters with 4.0s though. honestly, my entire chapter hated those guards (i want one now though). we thought they were pretty dorky

ok, maybe it's something different by chapter. My friend told me that at her chapter, when you get a 4.0, the chapter puts a diamond on your badge. That's what I was told!

Badges
As an Alpha Gam, I'd also have to say I'm partial to my 14-pearls. But, I've always loved the Golden Lyre of Alpha Chi and the Tri-Delt crescent. Then again, there's that gorgeous Arrow and the Kappa Key. They are all so beautiful. And, we all wear them with pride.
Speaking of badges.....I'm finally getting around to buying my chapter guards and officer dangles. Does anyone know what the protocol is for dangles. If you held the same office for two years, do you buy two of the same dangle or just one??? Any insight? Thanks gang!!

KCJAYHAWK, 1 per office held! More than that would be ostentacious! Wow a big word, wonder if I spelled it right!
I never held and ofice in my chapter of LXA.
If you ever get back to KC, let me know and you can have a chance to meet me!

Thanks, Tom!
I figured it would be a bit showy, but I didn't know what the rules are.
My bro was a Sig Ep at Pittstate. If I remember correctly, the houses are across the street from each other and they used to harass each other.

Yep Hawk, but there was a meeting that I could not go to with the Fraternitys and Members of the Academis that said this better cease and desist or you are out of here!
LXA # 54 son is a SPE! Everytime there is some sh^# and He knows I am there, he looks for me or his Dad!
It is stupid as they better figure out any Greek is a minority and most would like to get rid of us!
Igornance is stupid! Find out or keep mouth shut! If it were only true!

As far as the NIC badges go, I like the folowing:
Lambda Chi Alpha - It's just plain cool.
Theta Chi - The snake motif is very well-done.
Sigma Nu - I like the shape and I'm biased 'cause one of my friends was a member.
Delta Upsilon - It's kinda simple, but I dig the chased upsilon.

prettiest badge
My personal fave is of course the SAI badge (the pipes of Pan w/ pearls...trust me it's really pretty). I also like AOII and Tridelt's, as runner's up

I may be wrong (and correct me if I am), but I've never heard of a rule stating that you can't have the same dangle twice. I've had sisters hold the same office for more than one year, and some sisters buy just one, others buy the same one twice!

I just wanted to clarify why there are different Phi Sig badges... It depends on the chapter as to which one you get. The one with the sphinx head is less money, where as the one with the pyramid with nine sapphires, (jeweled badge) is more. Some chapters let the members decide which ones they want... Others have it regulated. Our chapter has the Jewled Badge. Every member initiated from our chapter will get that one.
Our New Member pin is a blue enamel pyramid, with a gold border. On the border it says "Diokete Hupsala." It's quite simple, but I like it!
