I'll second that!

This is great feedback! Keep it coming!

At the Cal Poly schools-- when you say the Greeks are not regarded in a positive light, why is that? Is the admin not supportive of the Greek system?

Has anyone got anything on Greek Life at: Fresno, CSU-LA, Humboldt, San Jose State, Sonoma State, Pepperdine, Santa Clara, UC-Davis, U Of Pacific?

Thanks again!

LOL... hell yea they have!!! That's where I am going tonite to patry with Delta Sig. Who did you room with?

Kenny Louis

He was their pres. last year huh? I saw him earlier today, he's a pretty kewl guy.

Yep, and yes he is.

I'm an Alumna from Humboldt State and believe me when I say the Greek system there is SMALL! This is the breakdown:

SORORITIES:
1 NPC: Delta Phi Epsilon
2 Locals: Rho Chi Upsilon and Phi Delta Psi
1 LGLO/MCGLO: Gamma Alpha Omega

FRATERNITIES:
2 IFC: Chi Phi and Tau Kappa Epsilon

SORORITIES: DPhiE has the most active members, but GAO is the most active on/off campus

FRATERNITIES: TKE's have the most active members, but Chi Phi is the most active on/off campus.

As for UOP, I don't know much about Greek life there other than they've just established the first LGLO's...
Fraternity: Omega Delta Phi
Sorority: Gamma Alpha Omega Petitioning Group

I hope this helps :D

Need to add a couple more we have Sigma Gamma Rho and Kappa Delta Chi

In essence this is what we have


NPC
Phi Sigma Sigma

NIC
Sigma Pi
Lambda Theta Phi - historically latino
Sigma Lambda Beta - historically latino
Phi Iota Alpha - historically latino

NALFO Sororities
Sigma Lambda Gamma
Kappa Delta Chi
Sigma Iota Alpha

Divine Nine
Sigma Gamma Rho
Zeta Phi Beta
Delta Sigma Theta
Phi Beta Sigma
Iota Phi Theta I think is colonizing or just colonized on campus
I think the other NPHC groups may have city wide chapters that have some of our students as members
Kappa Alpha Psi

The City of Carson doesn't allow houses so we don't have any type of greek housing. CSUDH is trying to get a Greek Council started but it's tough The administration is very open to the Greeks though as we do a lot of volunteer work on the campus. Most of the chapters are fairly small less then 20 and some maybe less then 10. We're one of the largest if not the largest at almost 30.

Hope this helps,
Carolyn

Very accurate! I live in the Cal Poly area , like 5 minutes from campus, and i have friends who have gone there and they say cal poly is very anti greek. It is a engr type school and the four houses on campus which are doing good , it is still hard to rush when you school doesnt support greek life like they should. I can even back it up by saying a very good friend of mine is a prof there and she is very active in her alum chapter and she agrees greeks are not overly abundent at cal poly.

To fill you in on a few more:

CSU Fresno:

The university website is arranged kinda funny. I wasn't going to take the time to arrange each of the groups by NPC, NIC, NPHC, MCGLO etc. :)

** When I went to CSULB, there were only 7 groups. I have *no* idea what "Sigma Lambda Gamma" is about. It's not an NPC group, yet they're listed under NPC. Maybe it's an interest group?

Laura,

What subject area is your prof. friend in, I am wondering if I ever had her as a prof. What group is she from?

Jackie

Heck, I am working on both my Master's and teaching credential at Long Beach, and I advise for my chapter there and I have no idea how Sigma Lambda Gamma is listed under PHC as they are a latina interest organization, and if you look at the side of the page under panhellenic organizations it's not listed...so go figure. (check out http://www.sigmalambdagamma.com for info, though LB is not listed as a colony...but anyhow). As far as I know, the campus is still not opening to expansion at this rate because the number of women placed with chapters during formal recruitment is very high.

There is no official housing at UCRiverside. Greek life was established in the mid-70s with the FIJIs as the first fraternity, and 3 NPCs: Gamma Phi Beta (still around), Kappa Kappa Gamma (still around), and Kappa Alpha Theta (not around since late 90s). Many fraternities have "houses," but they aren't officially owned or run by the national level- just a bunch of guys that live there. By far, the most well-known house is the Kappa Alpha Order house which is an old stone minicastle (literally) on a huge property and about 18 men live there. The NPC and NIC chapters are as follows:

NPC:

Alpha Chi Omega
Delta Gamma
Gamma Phi Beta
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Pi Beta Phi
Sigma Kappa

All chapters hit or come extremely close to total of 70 (soon raised to 80) in Fall, and quota has raised in the past 4 years from about 16 to 25ish.

NIC:

Alpha Tau Omega (55-58)
Delta Tau Delta (65-70)
Kappa Alpha Order (70-75)
Lambda Chi Alpha (25-35)
Phi Delta Theta (5-10)
Phi Gamma Delta (FIJI) (35-45)
Phi Kappa Sigma (35-40)
Pi Kappa Alpha (35-40)

Approximate numbers for each fraternity are in parentheses; things change fast though when recruitment comes around.

Interest groups/chapters to most likely join in Fall:

Tau Kappa Epsilon (was not invited to colonize in the Fall as of the beginning of July)
Phi Kappa Psi (invited to colonize in the fall as of July)
Sigma Phi Epsilon
Alpha Epsilon Pi (all ready established-not sure if recognized nationally)

NPHC groups:

Sigma Gamma Rho
Omega Psi Phi
Alpha Kappa Alpha (coming back after 2-3 absent years)
Kappa Alpha Psi (coming back after 1-2 absent years)

There are a large number of Latino/Chicano and Asian-American chapters as well, which I can list if you want.

We had a Panhellenic/IFC website created a while ago, but it's really outdated now. The link is http://www.greekbrothersandsisters.org , but you won't get much more info other than what I've said.

For the record, UCR administration is anti-greek for the most part, but some of that attitude has been changing since the inauguration of the new Chancellor. We'll see where things go. But for those of you at UCR, don't count on Greek housing for another 25 years at least (sad, but true).
