Andreia, it seems I was composing my post while you were posting so...
What does Alpha Nu Rho stand for? Did somebody guess it right?
I was wondering if anyone was going to ask. And, no, no one guessed. And I did say that if someone asked at the end, I'd explain. So...
Think about the way we use the word: Alpha.
Alpha male
Alpha female
Alpha dog.
In every case, the alpha is the leader.
Then think about Nellie McClung's quote: "Never retreat. Never explain. Never apologize. Just get the job done and let them howl."
Alpha Nu Rho means... Alphas never retreat.
Figured that was a great slogan for any sorority Lois decided to be a part of.
(And thank you Carol for giving me that idea when both you and Gerry vetoed Nu Nu Nu as the name of the sorority
)
(Told you it wasn't as easy as Beta Beta standing for Bad Boys. However, if you originally figured out what Beta Beta stood for, you'd have instantly known who the real bad guys were in my story: Bob and Ryan, both Beta Beta members)
