Several of Jean's close Chi Omega friends got together and purchased a Pandora-style bracelet for her from www.schoolbeads.com
It was presented to her last week during Firesides in Memphis. She loves it!

Flat Jean
This Chi Omega Elvis-inspired Sister distributed "Flat Jean" to each Panhellenic Delegate. All 174 chapters were charged with taking Flat Jean to Panhellenic meetings on their campus!

Each bead has 2 sides to it -- each with a different color, i.e., red/yellow for Chi Omega, etc.

Jean Mermoud Mrasek has also been the past National President of Chi Omega, plus held many other offices. She was Chapter President at the University of Tulsa (when I was a pledge), followed by being Chi O National Consultant. Her daughter graduated from Oklahoma University last year, where she was also the Chi Omega chapter president.
Love the "flat Jean"! (Maybe Chi O Creations will put it in the catalog ... hint, hint.)

That bracelet is so neat!!! Props to whoever sat there arranging and rearranging beads in different colors for I'm sure hours on end to make sure the final result was aesthetically pleasing as well as organizationally correct.

That bracelet is super cute! I have a question though. I know some sororities will not let anyone but initiated members wear their letters and some people can get pretty snitty about it. Is it proper for everyone's letters to be on that bracelet and for someone to wear it?

I would hope that as the NPC Chair, and in the spirit of it all, Ms. Mrasek would be allowed to "wear letters" in this fashion.
