Littles wearing our Letters

This is a picture of our lovely new Littes who were able to receive their letter, which are jackets with individualized phi mu letter designs. We got sixteen new littles this past Spring Recruitment, if you look back through my posts you will see a picture of our Spring Recruitment table. All the ladies standing in the back grow are Bigs, who mentor the littles who are essentially Big sisters to our new members. Throughout the past week the Little went through Inspiration Week or I-Week for short, where each day has a different themed event where they exchange gifts from Big to Little and Little to Big. The gifts consist of wooden Phi Mu Quatrefoil plaques that are decorated, memory boxes, scrap booking, and lastly their letters which the Bigs picked out the entire design for their new Little or Littles. Before the Little were able to receive they’re letters they had to be initiated into our sorority. The little already went through a pledging ceremony to the sorority which is more of a promise to Phi Mu where an initiation is more of a marriage. If you notice that some sister have the same colored jackets on, it’s not because they Bigs happened to have picked the same color, it’s because some of our new members have twins, so one Big will have two Littles to watch over and love for the rest of their entire Phi Mu experience and they're "family" will grow larger and larger throughout the years of Phi Mu being at CSUN.
