​The Badge
The badge of I.C. Sorosis was decided upon by the Founders in 1867 and consisted of a golden arrow with the letters IC on the wings. When the name of the fraternity was changed to Pi Beta Phi, the Greek letters replaced the IC on the wings.
At the 1934 convention, the body voted to limit the links in the chain of the badge to twelve, one for each founder. Upon initiation, a member is given a gold-filled arrow badge. The golden arrow badge is to be worn only by initiated members of Pi Beta Phi and is to be worn over the heart, with the tip of the arrow pointed up.
