Our Colors
Phi Mu’s official colors are rose (pink) and white, which can be traced back to the Philomathean Society.
Our Flower
Phi Mu’s official flower is the rose-colored, enchantress carnation. While the rose-colored carnation in the language of flowers refers to “women’s love and sisterhood,” Lillian Estes Davis, Alpha, Grand Historian in 1907-1908, wrote that “pink carnations are, and always have been, the emblematic flower.”
Our Greek Letters
The Greek letters “Phi” and “Mu” are used in communications and merchandise.
Our Badge
The Phi Mu Badge is a unique barbed quatrefoil shield of gold overlaid with a black shield bearing the two bonds, three stars, a hand clasping a heart and the Greek letters “Phi Mu.”
New Member Pin
The Phi pin (or provisional/new member pin) is a black and gold shield with the Greek letter “Phi.”
Our Mascot
A lion named Sir Fidel is the official mascot of Phi Mu.
Coat of Arms
Phi Mu’s coat of arms was designed in 1904 by Annie Laurie Mallory Parker and Louise Monning Elliott, who were both collegiate members of the Alpha Chapter at Wesleyan College.
The coat of arms consists of a red shield supported by two lions, our mascot. The shield includes the Phi Mu badge and under it is Phi Mu’s open motto, Les Soeurs Fideles, “the Faithful Sisters.” Above the shield is the crest, the lighted lamp of knowledge in gold.
