I just found out a few weeks ago that my husband's sister-in-law's niece is an AGD at UM. I think she was initiated this past fall!

Did someone have a mishap with their azure catsuit?

I am a convention initiate, and I think that definitely increased my love of ritual. The entire experience was quite amazing. "Epic" is a very fitting word!

I think I was next to you at one point during the ceremony.
That was the last time I attended as well....
Still crossing fingers for June, but it is looking dismal.

Chartering of the Alpha Phi Omega chapter at Art Institute of Washington in 2012, I think. (For APO, those starting a new chapter (or restarting an old one) aren't full brothers until the chapter (re-)charters)

I initiated my two daughters within the past seven year span. And, their two KKG grandmothers were also present! What a special and emotional moment for all of us! KKG initiation requires alumnae involvement in some aspects of the ritual, but my daughters had no idea they would see me at initiation. Their facial expressions were priceless.
I have participated in a handful of other initiations but always have been there 'for' someone which makes it really special, I think.

In that case, I was at her initiation Or, your husband's sister-in-law's niece is one of Hypo's best friends... How funny would that be?
