Is that a challenge?

the picture that is shown is the only picture of the Alpha Delta Pi picture I've ever seen. It is used in certain rituals, and that is all. We do have the Chapter Flags, much like everyone else - white flags with the chapter information in azure blue. I tried to copy & paste a picture of those flags, but couldn't.

ADPis, please run any further info past texas*princess or me prior to posting!

Yes, those of the Chapter flags, and they're paraded at Convention. Thanks for finding that photo - the one I found wouldn't copy.

As do I! :P I do like all of those flags, though. The brown-yellow should definitely be gold here too (just like the Epsilon in my siggy). I love both the Ritual and display flags.

Ha! I actually read it the way you meant it. I was trying to give you a less brown, "golder" gold, though maybe it's not that much golder.

I LOVE our official banner:



I think it's pretty unique and it can be displayed publicly but its meaning is secret

This is our crest (I want to say it's bronze but I have no clue) in the Memorial room at HQ. I love it.

Sidenote: Do we have an HQ photos thread?

How funny that you'd ask that. For some reason -- don't ask me why -- just earlier today I wondered why there was no HQ photos thread.

HQ Photos thread would be fun. I was tempted to start one but it's getting late and I've been a big GC slacker lately. I really like the one of the Tri Sigma coat of arms- very cool! Really pretty against the green walls, too.

Here's one of Kappa's CoA at HQ.

That's okay. KSUViolet took care of it a few weeks ago.

Show me your National Headquarters (pics/photos/video!)


And thanks for the photo!
