Retro pictures

Alright, it's been brought up recently in the Bid Day pic thread. I'm thinking this is the best place. Got retro sorority pictures? Bid day, Greek Week, formals, etc! Ready, set, go!

Here is my mom's DG chapter (Eta - University of Akron). This was taken around 1970 (plus or minus 2 years).



My mom is circled on the 2nd to bottom row (towards the right).

Yay Akron! I hope the Akron DGs on the board see this!

This is from Alpha Delta Pi's Loyally, Vol. I. I know we discussed whistles at one time, and I mentioned that I had seen a list of them from 1907. Here it is - sorry the resolution isn't better:





If anyone objects to this, as being part of ritual, please let me know. As it was published, I figured it was no big secret.

Love it! I wish AOII's was on there....only a few people even remember ours. Do you know how to do ADPi's, honeychile?

Actually, I'd be a little surprised if every ADPi doesn't know ours! If one isn't familiar with it by sight, I'm sure she'd recognize it by sound. I wish there were more, too!

As for the "Go Greek" button, we had "I'm a Greek" buttons. When I was a PNM, I saw one on a Kappa I knew from high school, and thought to myself, "I know Paulette's French!" Obviously, I hadn't connected Greek to Fraternity/Sorority yet.

I know, it's a reflection of how big of a deal it was to be pinned back then (it really did mean that you were going to get engaged very soon). When I was in undergrad, girls would get lavaliered and pinned left and right, then they'd break up within 3 months, lol.

Love it! It looks like the word "Logan" or "Legan" is written next to some of the womens' names. Was that a sorority?

It definitely says Logan. Perhaps it's a dorm where independent women lived?
