Florida State University
 
At FSU the top fraternities would be Pikes, Sigma Phi Epsilon and ATO. Sigmas Chi, Phi Delt, Lambda Chi and Pi kappa Phi all very good as well. All over 100 members each.

We have both AGR and FarmHouse also. Oklahoma State is a big agriculture school. I would have to say that AGR, FarmHouse, and FIJI are the tops houses here. We have about 20 fraternities.

there are, in my opinion, a lots of awesome guys in a lot of chapters here, but the most popular i would say are:
FIJI
Sigma Chi
SAE
Phi Kap
Kappa Sig - even though theyre on probation right now and can't participate in any greek events

FIJI
Beta
Kappa Sig

At Santa Clara University in northern California:

1. Sigma Pi

2. Pi Kappa Alpha

3. California Phi (a local now, formerly SAE)

4. Theta Chi


Sig Pi and Pike are both around 80 members, and both will probably top 100 next fall. Cal Phi used to be SAE, but they had their charter pulled two years ago. They have probably 40 members. Theta Chi had their charter pulled last year, and are dying out. This is probably thier last year, and they have have around 20 actives remaining.

when you post, when appropriate. It's much more interesting to us when we know where you're from. I'm at Florida State in Tallahassee. Thanks.

Well, when I was an active the top 3 were Delta Tau Delta, Sigma Chi, and SAE. It would have been very difficult to say who was the "best" of the three.....the Delts were the good looking jock-type guys, the SAEs were the preppy pretty boys, and the SXs were kind of a combo of both. Delt and Sigma Chi got along really well. Now things are really different. Delt isn't anywhere nearly as strong as they were. SAE is still ok but they are bouncing back from a suspension of a couple years. As far as I know Sigma Chi is still very strong. I also have to add that Phi Delt was very popular and was a close runner up to the big 3.....they were the cute preppy boys, a lot more laid back than the SAEs.

Nowadays the strongest fraternities are probably Phi Kappa Tau and Phi Sig from what I hear.

They were a good house before they got their charter pulled (my sophomore year) for a stunt that wasn't really the actives' fault. I saw them having an info. booth on campus. Their "old" house is right behind us and we lease our parking lot from them.

We have decnt AG program, but since I am KY I guess we have great AG ppl.

I am not really sure why they got into trouble in the first place, but when they came back to campus this past fall, over 500 men signed up to be 're-founding fathers'. Our recruitment team took the top 55 for their extensive re-colonization period. On top of that, their alumni have been overly generous, donating nearly $5,000,000 to build the new structure. I believe they are going to tear down their current house to build their new one. Good for them!

see, ilovemyglo is my roomie, and i have a somewhat different take on the top 3...

1-Lambda Chi
2-Phi Delt
3-Pikes/FH

they all have their issues as does every greek org., but on the whole, lambda chi guys prove worthy of the top spot (good parties, nice guys, etc., etc). phi delts are just fun, nice guys, and everyone on campus knows at least one of them. pikes are just on the brain, i think, b/c of pike's peak week last week, but they are HOT...and they tie with farmhouse b/c farmhouse guys are festive and super nice. :D

this is so much a silly thing to talk about b/c, i mean seriously...we didn't get out of high school just to get back in it with this type of labeling. ya know? but i had to comment, anyway. :rolleyes:

From what I hear from my friends at your alma matter, SAE is the most competitive house to get into. Beta, ATO, and Sig Ep are also the chapters that sororities with which sororities want to mix.

Sigma Chi was just allowed back on campus this year. They were kicked of some time ago due to pressed legal charges. But they are up and coming again.

ZZ-kai- That house is beautiful. The outside looks a great deal like the one that is already there. The inside looks awesome. Sounds like they are well on their way. During their recruitment there were girls all over campus wearing buttons that said: RUSH BETA

OK well at MTSU we dont have that many fraternities but my personal Fav is Sigma Chi**they're all my best friends and like my big brothers who are always there for m and stick up for me no matter what** umm lets see I also like the Kappa Sig's and Sigma Nu's I just Met a couple ATO's and theyre great guys too but we're doing homecoming with them in the fall so I may know more about them later. the other fraternities here are Beta, AGR, KA, SAE, Sig Ep, TKE and I think thats it.
