File:The pin of Eta Upsilon Gamma sorority.jpg

Though this image may be subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. It illustrates an educational article about the entity that the logo represents.
2. The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of the article topic.
3. It is a low resolution image, and thus not suitable for production of counterfeit goods.
4. The logo is not used in such a way that the reader would be confused into believing that the article is written or authorized by the owner of the logo.
5. It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted image of comparable educational value.
6. Additionally, the pin was designed circa 1908, to identify members of a society that has now been dormant for some 50 years with no successor organization. While the photograph was taken more recently, it has little intrinsic value, and my cropping and size reduction further ensure there is no commercial value to the uploaded version.
