What fraternity/sorority (if any) were you in?
Hopefully this won't turn into an "all fraternity members are pigs" thread (though I readily admit many are, though we do, hopefully mature some!). :)

I was a Theta Chi.

1. We didn't have frats....
but I was Adams House, which was as good as a frat without the brothers, the parties, or the beer.

I've never met a bigger group of selfish, self-centered jerks in my life.

19. Zeta Tau Alpha!
Psi Chapter, University of Washington.

Currently, I'm the service chairwoman for our alumnae chapter here in Seattle, so if there are any Zetas here in Seattle, please PM me! I would love to talk to you. We have 9 events each year where we raise money/goods for homeless people and for the elderly and for children's charities here in the Seattle area.

If so we probably have mutual friends (I went to OSU around the same time).

25. Follow up
That's cool. My dad was a Lambda Chi at U. South Carolina (Epsilon Psi chapter if I recall directly) and his experiences there (and stories about them) are what helped me decide to join a fraternity.

32. I was briefly a Delta Phi Epsilon and also in the academic one
left D PHI E cuz there was not enough talk about philosophy or actual dope smoking, like they claimed... if you met me, I would be the last person you would ever think would be in a sorority! I just liked to check out everything! One of my best friends in college was a Chi Omega.

31. Kappa Kappa Psi
Granted, it was a service fraternity and not a social one. Still, we had our own house and I was a founding member of our chapter. It's a band frat.

45. I was in a co-ed academic fraternity for theater.
Alpha Psi Omega

I was also a TKE little sister. At my college at the time I was there, the TKE house was a very atypical fraternity full of excellent, smart, generous guys with THE best drugs, music and chess players. (It was college, okay.)
