International Badge Day

International Badge Day is a time to celebrate sorority membership by wearing our badges (every sorority has their own pin called a badge). As an alumna member, Badge Day is one of my few excuses a year to wear my pin. Every time I take it out of its box it reminds me of so many meaningful moments from my college and alumna years.

One of the best things about membership in an international organization like the National Panhellenic Council is being linked to amazing women around the world. To have one day a year when everyone wears their pins really emphasizes the reach of that network. What a cool idea to think of thousands of sorority women around the world wearing their pins at the same time! It would be fun to find another sorority member on Badge Day in an unexpected place by seeing her pin, but that hasn’t happened to me yet.

Skies may be blue, but there is still snow on the ground! My badge attire this years includes a cozy cotton sweater dress, sorority print scarf and boots (details below). I’m looking forward to to things: spring, and making more memories with my sorority membership!
