Page creation

I created this page, following the established model for other honors societies. I will follow up with a linked page for the Chapters section, which lists them from the 2012 history. Jax MN (talk) 20:18, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

Chapter list page is done. That page would benefit from review by national staff, as it is missing the exact date for Auburn's chartering, and for Idaho and UMass. These last two data points were not on the 2012 history, but the chapters were noted on the ΓΣΔ website. Although my cursory scan showed no further inactive chapters than just 2 (!), perhaps there are others that are dormant. Jax MN (talk) 15:58, 7 March 2016 (UTC)

Colors

The two colors cited are correct from the bare description in the Society's History. However, the Forest green used in the swatch does not match exactly the color of the crest, which may be due to its artist's use of an approximate and limited web pallet color. Complicating this, I note that there are both "traditional" and "web" versions of Forest green, with the traditional being darker. I opted to use the traditional color on the swatch. Neither of these two hex pantones match exactly the green color in the Society's key JPG, which itself doesn't match the green/blue used on the Society's home page, but my assumption is that the color swatches in the info box are correct. Society members may wish to haggle over this, and post an update based on their deliberations. Jax MN (talk) 16:09, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
