* Usually in our case there is a single maddog (MD 2020) with a rose placed into it* Usually there is a table of some sort set up with a pair of letters and roses all around. Selected subject is then blind folded and driven to the chapter house, and lead into the basement where all the brothers are waiting. Not sure if this is the same thing but we give out our letters to a Sweetheart chosen by the fraternity i think this is somewhat similar to lavaliering?Īnyway basically we would send usually 4-5 of the younger guys to grab/scoop up/kidnap our selected sweetheart at a random time no matter where and what she is doing. I'm almost 40, but I STILL think that these gracious gestures NEVER go out of style no matter what the generation, and I think it's awesome that young men are really putting thought into this and want to make it something special.Ĭongrats to all who are getting ready to take the first "step" I do know, from my friends who are in soroities, that when a girl receives a lavalier/pin/engagement, they have a ceremony that they go through too.so this is a very, very, extra special thing if your "lady" is also Greek. The regard it pretty much one step before a marriage proposal, but not quite the same pressures as an engagement (as in.if you get engaged, people almost immediately ask you, "When is the date?")Īt the college I graduated from, if a fraternity brother lavaliered his girlfriend in a ceremony/pinned/etc, they had an equal ceremony for if they should break up, which was most unpleasant.this was a pretty big incentive for him to be pretty sure of his choice.the purpose was to prevent every Tom, Dick, and Harry for lavaliering every other female that they dated for longer than two weeks. Hey, I'm a female and "clicked" this link by accident.From a female perspective, lavaliering it is pretty much regarded as a MAJOR deal by college women and sorority members. PS.if anyone will be at the Ralph Burns institute in NJ, I will be one of the facilitators. I have contacted nationals and they said this would be up to the individual chapter, and there is no national ceremony for lavaliering. Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you. Please email me if you have any ideas or traditions in your chapter about the lavaliering process. There are a few guys who are in serious relationships and have expressed interest in doing so. I am looking to set up a ceremony to be performed over valentines day weekend 2005 in order for brothers in our chapter to lavalier their girlfriends. I really want to lavalier her but since we are a new chapter at Binghamton, we have never done this. I have been with her for a year now and we've been best friends for close to 6 years now. I had a question regarding lavaliering my girlfriend.
