finding your letters somewhere you didn't expect

One of my favorite students showed up to visit our school today in her new Alpha Gam letters!

Now that must be one of the best ways to see letters!

She's not a sister of Alpha Gamma Delta, she is a sister of Delta Resh Alpha. (ΔרΑ). Definitely not the first Organization to have letters from both the Greek and Hebrew Alphabets in their name, see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Beta_Samach which became Beta Sigma Rho.

Not sure how many GLOs have a "mirror image" group, where the letters are in the opposite order, but the letters "look right". I know that Phi Alpha exists and Omega Phi Alpha exists, but beyond that, I'm not sure.

I live in Western NC and have family in Virginia, so I end up traveling back and forth on 81 quite often. In SW Virginia along the side of the highway near Emory & Henry College is a place where the fraternities have painted their letters on the rocks. They are mainly locals. I always look for it when we go by, and it makes a fun little landmark on anotherwise pretty boring stretch of road.

Rep. Barbara Lee is wearing a very prominent Sigma Gamma Rho pendant during an appearance on Nicolle Wallace’s show right now.

Dang, I thought I already answered this one. Georgia Tech! I really like that chapter; one of my oldest daughter's best friends was initiated there.

I love that chapter too! One of my good friend's granddaughter was chapter president there a few years ago. And, when I served on our Int'l Finance Committee...they were one of "my" chapters as I had Georgia & Alabama chapters in my region. They have a gorgeous house!

A bicycle BEING DRIVEN ON THE SIDEWALK by a young man who wore a t-shirt sporting small Sigma Phi Epsilon greek letters. Didn't expect to see someone in greek letters breaking the law by riding a bike on the sidewalk. Kind of disappointing, since I rarely see people in greek letters.

On the hottest day [so far] this year: a beautiful green 2021 ATO Fall Recruitment t-shirt, worn by a student inside the local library. This is Orientation Week for freshmen at the local college, so wearing it makes good marketing sense.
