When I was in school, there were lots of Alphas, Phis, Sigmas, and Taus.
Sororities: Alpha Epsilon Phi Alpha Phi Alpha Xi Delta Delta Phi Epsilon Delta Tau (local) Phi Sigma Sigma Sigma Delta Tau Fraternities: * Alpha Epsilon Pi * Alpha Sigma Phi * Beta Theta Pi * Chi Phi * Delta Omega Phi (local-closed) * Pi Lambda Phi * Sigma Alpha Epsilon * Sigma Alpha Mu * Sigma Phi Epsilon * Sigma Nu * Tau Alpha Upsilon (local) * Tau Epsilon Phi * Tau Kappa Epsilon * Zeta Beta Tau It is interesting. Many of these fraternities have closed and new ones have opened. Only one sorority (the local) has closed over the years. |
Believe it or not, I was just thinking about this same thing recently! Delta and Alpha seem to be very popular where I went to school.
As for rarely-used letters, I'm in an honor society called Phi Upsilon Omicron...try saying that three times fast!:p |

This is the breakdown at Indiana University
Alpha Chi Omega Alpha Delta Pi Alpha Epsilon Phi Alpha Gamma Delta Alpha Omicron Pi Alpha Phi Alpha Xi Delta Chi Omega Delta Delta Delta Delta Gamma Delta Zeta Gamma Phi Beta Kappa Alpha Theta Kappa Delta Kappa Kappa Gamma Phi Mu Pi Beta Phi Sigma Delta Tau Zeta Tau Alpha Acacia Alpha Epsilon Pi Alpha Tau Omega Alpha Sigma Phi Chi Phi Delta Tau Delta Delta Upsilon Delta Kappa Epsilon Kappa Sigma Kappa Delta Rho Lambda Chi Alpha Phi Delta Theta Phi Gamma Delta Phi Kappa Psi Phi Sigma Kappa Pi Kappa Phi Sigma Alpha Mu Sigma Chi Sigma Pi Tau Kappa Epsilon Zeta Beta Tau It seems to me that Alpha, Delta, Phi, and Kappa are the most common on this campus. |
You seem to have a lot of Sigmas at Indiana U. Actually, you have a lot of everything there since greeklife is so huge. :)
|
I guess because Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet, it will have the most usage :)

As for seldom used Iota, the only national orgs I know of are Sigma Alpha Iota and Iota Phi Theta. I can't think of any that use Eta, though. |
Phi is the most common letter at CNU
Alpha Phi Alpha Phi Omega Gamma Phi Beta Pi Kappa Phi Pi Lambda Phi Sigma Phi Epsilon Phi Mu and then we have Alpha Kappa Alpha Delta Sigma Theta we used to have Zeta Phi Beta Sigma Pi Sigma Tau Gamma Phi Beta Sigma |

We have a lot of Phi usage at my school. (we have 11 GLO @CSU Stanislaus)
Sororities: Phi Sigma Sigma Phi Lambda Rho-local Delta Phi Gamma-local Phi Gamma Theta-local Fraternities: Phi Mu Alpha Phi Delta Theta Also what is interesting at my school is the more uncommon letters are more commonly used with our locals. letters used by our locals: Upsilon Kappa Delta Nu Alpha Kappa Phi Lambda Rho also we have Alpha Xi Delta which is uncommon too. Another thing that is common on our campus is all of our GLO have 3 letters except for one. (Theta Chi) I've always thought that was kinda neat. *Edited because I can't spell Upsilon |

Phi Beta Sigma and Zeta Phi Beta, too.
|
We have a tie between Alpha and Phi... 13 occurrences each. Lots of Deltas and Kappas in there too.

OK this is totally turning into a roll call thread...
Just thought I'd point that out! |

How many "Tri-somethings" are there? There's Tri Delta and Tri Sigma (NPC) There's Tri Alpha and Tri Zeta (I think they're locals - I saw their website somewhere). There's Tri Kappa (I think it's educational or honor or something) and there's Tri Beta (also something along those lines). Any others? |
