Probably big trouble

Ruby badges are now worn by collegiate chapter presidents. They are a replica of one of Bertha'a badges. My chapter (Delta) still wears a vintage emerald badge from the early 1900's, possibly before we went to the ruby badge for CPs.

It is terrifying because if the badge is lost or stolen, it is irreplaceable. I wish they'd send that badge to HQ and get a replica. I know of three chapters who had their historical CP badge stolen. I only know of one that was recovered. So sad!
