ADPi was Garnets, right? So why did your envelope look different?

Because of the blue color!
The Chapters are (and please read the explanation afterwards):
Garnets = ADPi
Sapphires = AEPhi
Amethysts = Tri Delta
Opals = DZ
Emeralds = DPhiE
Topaz = TPA
Diamonds = Theta
Rubies = Kappa
Pearls = SDT
Jade = ChiO
This was at the time when AEPhi & SDT were allowed to rush non-Jewish members, but very rarely did. TPA was the same way with non-Catholics. It's hard to understand in this day & age, but what would happen during Rush was that they would steer the conversation towards the High Holy Days ("Do you want to see the Sedar Plate that my boyfriend got me?") or Catholic school. It was mostly understood by both parties that eh, not a match.
Also, I really did like some of the Emeralds - I just didn't like the way
my Rho Chi handled our group. First, I didn't find out until afterwards that she was supposed to have disaffiliated - and she definitely intimidated us, if not more. One of the people in my Rho Chi group did become an Emerald, and one of my favorite GC people is one
