The symbols of the fraternity - including its colors, jewels, flower, and mascot - showcase the unique personality of Theta Phi Alpha. Our mascot, the penguin, was chosen in the 1980s because it is the symbol of friendship.
In the United States, Pap smear screening is recommended starting around 21 years of age until the age of 65. However, other countries do not recommend pap testing in non-sexually active women. Guidelines on frequency vary from every three to five years.
Women should have a pap smear by the age of 18, and sooner if they have had had sexual relations. These tests should take place every year once sexual activities begin. After three such negative tests are taken, women can slack off and have a Pap smear every three years.
