SAI Trivia!

I was inspired by this post about Kappa Alpha Theta's History/Facts trivia and I thought it would be a lot of fun to do this for my sororities! (Sorry if this thread has already existed for SAI). I will start with the first question.

Q: Who is the "invisible pipe of pan" that our Founder's refer to?

A: The first active sister was Blanche Abbott, and Mrs. William Howland the first patroness.

Q: The founders had a nickname for the car they rode around in. What was it?

^^^^I've got no clue and have been digging through the history book looking for the answer.

I do have a question, though, when an answer is given!

Oh wow, I haven't the slightest idea! And I read that history book cover to cover too!

Any guesses out there?

I'll give the answer, since it's been a really long time. It's Old Stonewall! My chapter named a teddy bear after the car that we pass from sister to sister as a sharing item. I found the information in my Fraternity Education binder (I was co-chair for 2 years).

I'll let someone else put up a question!

Actually......

Minnie Davis Sherrill and Georgina Potts died within 10 days of each other.

Q: Which chapter is credited with the creation of the Ring of Excellence?

Since no one has answered.....

The answer is Beta Chapter. They established the Ring of Excellence as a local award before it was a National one.

Someone else ask a question!

SAI voted on our colors. Red and white obviously won. But there were two other color combinations that were on the ballot. What were they?

I know it's in the history book but I haven't been home to look it up since Wednesday.

If memory serves me, wasn't brown included?
