Brothers

As Riot mentioned, we use our fraternity numbers a lot here at Delta.  Actually,
its not our whole initiation number, but our chapter number.  I am Delta 1070.
That, of course, means that I was the 1,070th brother to initiate in our chapter
   .

The last to digits of my fraternity number ("70") or on the back of my jersey in
4 inch or 6 inch letters.  On one sleave is a 2 inch Delta (insert greek letter)
an on the other is a 2 inch "AU" for Auburn University.

Around the chapter, we use "Delt Numbers" to address notes on the bulletin board
   .
They are also used for roll call and to sign up for projects, etc.  The pledges
have to learn all current Delt Numbers, and often the Delt Numbers and names of
the big brothers of active brothers, and sometimes those of great big brothers.
