How to Design a Greek Sweatshirt for a Gift
A Greek sweatshirt is one of the most popular clothing items that a member of a fraternity or sorority will wear, making it the ideal holiday gift! Shopping for a Greek sweatshirt is a fun experience however can be overwhelming given the amount of stores to choose from as well as the number of styles, colors, and patterns available at any Greek apparel store.
Product quality and selection, cost, turn-around time, licensing, & customer service should all play in to your decision when searching for a Greek sweatshirt with sewn-on Greek letters. Each Greek apparel store is distinct so it's important to find that store that best meets your Greek gear needs. Because the item being purchased is a gift, you ultimately want to choose a store that produces a great looking product. Be sure to check out samples or pictures as they are good quality indicators.
Once you select a Greek apparel store, the design process begins. This includes selecting the sewn-on Greek letters, the sweatshirt style, two layers of fabric (that are sewn down), and an optional embroidery message.
The most important piece of the process is selecting the correct sewn-on Greek letters. This may seem obvious but for shoppers not familiar with the Greek world, it can be confusing. Similar sounding Greek letters such as Phi and Pi often get mixed up which is the last thing you want when your gift arrives!
The next step in the design process is selecting the actual sweatshirt for the Greek sewn-on letters. There are many types of greek sweatshirts to choose from – hoodies, crewnecks, quarter zips, zip hoodies, ladies styles, men's styles and more! If you are not sure of the recipient's preference, unisex apparel is always a safe way to go. Many members of fraternities and sororities wear the unisex styles as they flattering on both men and women. Brands such as American Apparel, Champion, Hanes, Jerzees, Sport Tek, and Bella are extremely popular as well as high in quality
When selecting the foreground layer and background layer for the sewn-on Greek letter sweatshirt there are several ways to go. All fraternal organizations have colors and symbols associated with them. Take for example Pi Kappa Alpha, an international collegiate fraternity. Their colors are Garnet and Gold; their flower is the Lily of the Valley; their jewel is the Diamond; their symbols are The Oak Tree, Shield & Diamond, and White Horse. Any of these colors or objects mentioned above can be used for design inspiration. Most Greek apparel stores offer large amounts of solid colors and patterns for the foreground letters and solid colors for the background letters – this makes finding the perfect color design fairly easy! Instead of going with colors or symbols related to the organization, you can also select a color or pattern that fits with the recipient's personality – most chapters allow for any sort of design or color scheme.
To further personalize your gift, many stores offer custom embroidery (direct stitching of thread). This can include any personalized message you desire. Embroidery offers the ability to choose the color, font, size, and location resulting in a very custom look.
With so many fantastic options for Greek apparel items it is essential to select a reputable Greek apparel store. When shopping for a sweatshirt like a Greek Hoodie, be sure to view "real" products which will reveal the product quality as well as provide you with great design ideas. Most importantly, have fun during the design process – it will show when your gift is delivered!

What should a letter of interest to a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc entail?
How should I format the letter so that I can make it straight-forward yet detailed? What details about myself or the sorority do I have to include? Is it ok if I write them a letter of interest via facebook? If any members of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. help me with this I would be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully,
RegalVirtuous
1. The letter should be one page in length.
2. It should tell us why, specifically, you believe that you should be offered membership.
3. It should tell us what you have to offer the sorority.
4. It should give us an explanation as to why you want to be a member of our sorority.
5. You can leave out some of the more obvious things, like what school u attend.
6. You should approach writing it like you are in an interview; think of some of the questions that would matter to the the interviewer (above mentioned points) and answer them in the letter.
7. The letter should open you up to the chapter members.
I wouldn't suggest sending an interest letter over the internet. You include it your application.
