ADPi~Ally 09-01-2003 05:36 AM

In my graduation class there was only 60. And I think I might the only one that went greek or one of a handful. I know 2 girls in the grade ahead of me, that went greek, don't know the names though and 2 sisters in grades below me went AChiO at the school I went to.

Thanks for clarifying.

I had three close friends in high school and lots of other acquaintances. Of my three best friends, I was the only one who went greek. One of them wanted to pledge Sigma Kappa at her school but she didn't have the grades. I'm not sure where a lot of other people went, though.

Panhellpres 09-01-2003 02:56 PM

I knew I wanted to be Greek when I was in high school. My best friends always made fun of me and would make fun of all my Greek Gear that I wore. But when they came home from sophomore year, I found out that 2 of my closest friends went greek!! Yay!! One is a Sigma Kappa and one is an Alpha Chi Omega.
I have gone to visit my Sigma Kappa friend at her university and I get to "live" at her house when I go visit. Since I go to a commuter school (we only have 13 girls living in our house), its such a great experience to see how other sororities live (with the cook, maids, and 70 plus people living in one house!!).
A lot of people from my HS went Greek. It is fun to see the Greeks on my campus who I went to high school with. Everyone changes so much!!:D

Just curious...

erniegurl00 09-01-2003 11:51 PM

Let's see....

1 SDT at Purdue
1 AXS at Purdue (chemistry fraternity)
1 ZTA at Purdue
1 AXO at Ball State

Those were just my close friends. I knew a lot of other ppl from my high school who also went greek, but those are too many to count! :)

pinkyphimu 09-01-2003 11:56 PM

hmm, most of the people i know went to college locally and there was no greek life. tons of people continued high school, i mean, went to penn state, but i don't know of anyone who actually went greek. i know that my hs bf rushed, but never pledged. his uncle was greek and really wanted him to do it, tho. i also had tons of friends who went to schools that were pretty anti-greek.

i know for positive that 3 girls went greek. one at pitt and i think she went theta, but i have no confirmation. two went greek at villanova- one definately went tri delta and the other one definately didn't go to tri delta...lol, but i don't know where she went.

RoseNWhiteLion 09-02-2003 11:41 AM

There were only a couple of us from my circle of friends in HS who went greek...

AXO @ University of Richmond

KD @ William and Mary

and me Phi Mu at Muhlenberg College

Come to think of it, none of my guy friends went Greek......no, I take that back....one went Alpha Phi Omega (co-ed service fraternity) and one went Phi Mu Delta (music fraternity)

I guess my highschool didn't really breed greeks!

DZHBrown 09-02-2003 11:50 AM

I had a few of my male friends go Greek at MTSU, UT-Knoxville and Western Kentucky University. I had some female friends go Greek at WKU, MTSU, UT and Austin Peay. Overall, though, there weren't many of them that decided to do it. I'm sure some that I lost touch with ended up going Greek and I don't know about it!

OUlioness01 09-02-2003 11:08 PM

m_nms i pmed you

MeLikey 09-03-2003 12:37 AM

My high school friends went...

2 D Phi Es
1 DG (another friend was pledging but dropped out)
1 Beta
1 Lambda Chi
1 Pi Phi

dixiesong3131 09-03-2003 03:00 PM

None of my close guy friends joined a fraternity, but my girls...
So my close group of girlfriends and I were really tight in high school and we nicknamed ourselves The Frickative Five- we all were in the same spanish class where Senora used the word "Frickative" and it stuck. When we went off to college, I went to Baldwin-Wallace, two to Ohio Northern, one to Bowling Green and another to Toledo. By the end of the following January, we had two Kappa Alpha Theta's, an Alpha Gamma Delta, a Phi Mu and while the last didn't join a sorority, she joined Kappa Kappa Psi... so in my opinion, we did 100%!

SATX*APhi 09-03-2003 03:02 PM

Most of my friends from high school went Greek. Off the top of my head, I am only remembering three who didn't go Greek, one of which is going Greek this semester, another of which considered going Greek for a while but didn't, and a third who has always been anti-Greek. Wow, I hadn't realized that most of my H.S. friends are now Greek.

Looking back, tons of people I graduated with went Greek. I found out that several had joined Alpha Phi. Girls I rarely talked to, but was cool with, went A-Phi, so I thought that was super cool. I can't wait for the H.S. reunions. :D

AlphaChiCutie 09-03-2003 05:37 PM

From my class (a small private school):
2 DDD (Furman, Vanderbilt)
3 AXO (me, two friends at GA Tech)
1 XO (Mercer)
1 ZTA (Presbyterian College)
1 Sigma Nu (Furman)
1 Phi Delta Theta (Cornell)

Other friends from high school have gone:
SAE (5)
ADPi (4)
AXO
Pi Kappa Phi
DDD


After being at such a small school, it was necessary for each of us to find the same "niche" with another group of friends.

LXAAlum 09-04-2003 01:56 PM

I found out at my 10 year HS reunion, that the guy's picture in the yearbook directly next to mine also became a LXA at the University of Denver.

I also dated a girl for several years (went to HS together, but, never knew each other until after graduation) that was a Theta.

Lots of friends in a myriad of fraternities and sororities.

Funny thing is, many of these people were NOT the "jocks" and "popular (homecoming court)" crowd - most of those people never did go to college, or went locally to a school with no greek system. They still live in my hometown, trying to relive their glory days - very sad.

There is not a chapter or colony of DX at CSU - Northern Colorado, and I think CU Boulder - but definitely not CSU....

AYE FEE 09-04-2003 04:05 PM

My best friend was a DG at USC, but most of my girlfriends didn't affiliate. My guy friends, how ever, made a better showing:

1 SN at Cal Poly SLO
1 FDQ at Stanford
1 SFE at UCLA
1 KA at Berkeley
1 SC at SDSU
1 KS at UC Davis
2 QC's at Chico State

However my little sis in Alpha Phi had a cool story - her 7 close HS friends all went away to different colleges - and all pledged Alpha Phi! They made the cutest shirts that had a big AF in the middle and all the school names around it.

That is really cool! I have a great group of girls that is going to be rushing all over next year that were little froshies when I was track captain, and I am so stoked to write them recs - I go to all their meets with letters on. ;)

Fewdfreak 09-05-2003 08:19 PM

In my high school we have quite a few that went Greek at the colleges they went to. I'm sure we would of had more, but we live very close to a community college, so a lot of the girls that you would expect to join a house ended up going there first.

1 Phi Psi at U of Iowa
1 SAE at U of Iowa
1 ADPi at U of Iowa
1 girl that pledged Tri-Delt at U of Iowa this fall
1 Sigma Kappa at Northern IL
1 DTD at U of IL
Some girls in locals at Augustana Col.
And some more unknowns at various colleges.

silly_me 09-06-2003 10:23 PM

in my high school, one friend is in alpha chi omega at usc, and another is an alpha phi at uci, while i myself started up a new sorority at my school. i just recently found out that another friend of mine who was a year older than me just crossed spring 2k3 at her school haha.

AlphaXi4983 09-06-2003 10:51 PM

AlphaChiCutie 09-07-2003 11:20 AM

Did you go to Sacred Heart or Newman?

MereMere21 09-07-2003 03:07 PM

1 Pi Phi
2 Lambda Chi's
2 Sigma Nu's

I think we all pretty much found great groups!

socialbutterfly 09-09-2003 01:52 AM

At my HS no one was really knew what GLO's were...I didn't find out until I actually got to college. After seeing a few friends from HS after going greek...none of them did. It surprised me and surprised them that I did. I know my best friend from HS didn't go greek because she had a bad incounter with a sorority at her college (ball state) so after that, so swore off greek life...I really wish she would have, she was so active in HS, she would have made a great sister...in my org or in another.

I know a few people I went to school with, but never talked to did go greek, but I've heard allot of stories about them...things only your org should know, but I guess its all on the org they joined.

KSUViolet06 08-24-2005 06:14 PM

I go to Kent State and went to HS in Akron. A few of my friends from high school are now Greek, but not many.

One girl is an Alpha Sigma Alpha @ Mount Union.
2 of my friends are Alpha Xi Deltas here @ KSU.
One of my guy friends is a Phi Sigma Kappa @ Akron.
One is a Delta Gamma at Akron.
Another is a DZ here @ Kent State.
One is a Kappa Kappa Gamma @ LSU.
Another is an Alpha Delta Pi @ UF.
One is an AKA @ Fisk University
One is Phi Kappa Psi @ Ashland University

KSigkid 08-24-2005 06:29 PM

Out of the guys, one went Lambda Chi, one went Sigma Pi, one went Kappa Sig, and a few others joined locals. For the girls, I know one went SDT, one went Tri Delt, and one more went Kappa Delta.

PhoenixAzul 08-24-2005 06:54 PM

Just one...a Zeta Phi Beta. I was really surprised at first, but the more I thought about it, the more I could see her as a Greek. She's awesome.

amycat412 08-24-2005 06:56 PM

of my three closest friends in HS - One went Gamma Phi beta at USD, One went DZ at LMU, and the other did not go greek.

AngelPhiSig 08-24-2005 07:06 PM

Lets see:

Mindy: Non Greek
Sandy: TBS and SAI
Amber: Non Greek, tried to start Phi Sig at her school
Brooke: Non Greek

Those were my BEST friends... Im sure others went greek.

Everyone said 'Oh I KNEW you'd be in a sorority' but I myself never saw it...

LightBulb 08-24-2005 07:44 PM

Only two of my .. ten or so closest high school friends did. One's an SAE, and the other's and ADPi.

Small high school in central Kansas, heavy GLO-wise

UCFStefanie 08-24-2005 09:56 PM

Really I think if you asked anyone at my school they wouldnt peg me as the "Sorority" type. (I wasnt very girly in HS, not that all sorority members are "girly" I would just suffice to say that i wasnt the type)

Man, how college can change things.

Though from talking and catching up with people, none of my close friends went greek though they dont seem to be suprised that I did (I was always the outgoing type but I never thought a sorority was me and I made that vocal, I guess they saw through that)

Of the "popular" crowd from my school, I only know of one Kappa Delta. Everyone else is a GDI which suprised me.

Proverbs31 08-24-2005 10:11 PM

My best friend of 13 :D years became an AKA in '04 (Univ. of Dayton)

AGDee 08-24-2005 10:41 PM

One of my friends from grade school through present (more years than I can figure out now) went Sigma Kappa at the U of Mich. Another friend of mine went to Albion College and went through recruitment but wasn't picked up (she had a pretty wild first semester freshman and got a very bad rep at a very small school). The third close friend went ao a school that was hazing big time back then so she didn't go to recruitment, but would have liked to if she'd been somewhere else.

pinkyphimu 08-24-2005 11:10 PM

of my high school friends, i know that one went tri-delta, one went somewhere else on that campus, one went theta. that's all i know of, but there were lots of people who went to schools without greek systems.

Buttonz 08-25-2005 12:09 AM

From my class of 53 seniors, there is 1 TKE, 1 Phi Sig and myself that I know about. A friend the year before me started pledging SDt and dropped, and one went AEPi.
