as far as i know, one of my cousins on my mom's side is the only other greek family member; the thing is, my mom doesn't talk to her sisters, so we don't talk to our cousins, so i don't know too much about it; one of cousins on my dad's side is a sophomore this year at a school in california; when she came out here in may she was talking about rushing and asking me all these questions; i am the only member in my immediate family who is a greek; when i first joined, it was kind of frustrating for me, because my parents and siblings just didn't understand and were not very supportive; but since then, they have seen how important my house is to me and they all support me in it

My husband is a member of Phi Mu Alpha, and a founding brother of Epsilon Tau Pi (local at University of Dayton).

My godmom/aunt is an AOTT.

That's about it.

Me: Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia
Dad: Kappa Sigma
Mom: went to a non-Greek school
Sister: Phi Mu
Her Husband: Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia
Brother: not Greek (his wife went to a non-Greek school)
My Wife: Kappa Kappa Gamma
Her Dad: Kappa Sigma
Her Mom: Pi Beta Phi
Her Sister: Zeta Tau Alpha

Add to that a grandfather (no longer living) who was a Beta, an uncle who is a Beta, an uncle who is an Alpha Tau Omega, a cousin who is a Theta and a cousin-in-law who is a Sinfonian.

That's 9 fraternities/sororities altogether, with 3 Sinfonians! And I have the 1880's-era Pike badge that my great-grandfather gave to my great-grandmother when they were "courting."

My sister is in the same sorority and same chapter as me.
My cousin is a ZTA.
That's all as far as I know

Im pretty sure Im the only one in my family that has considered going greek. I dont think that anyone on either side of my family is greek. Oh well. Hopefully my kids will start a new tradition :)

My cousin and I were pledge sisters, a few cousins are Sigma Lambda Gamma, Sigma Lambda Beta, Sigam Chi, Phi Kappa Theta and one Alpha Phi Alpha....I can't think of any one else.....

Me--Delta Gamma (Washington U. in St. Louis)
Sister--Chi O (Drake U.--now closed chapter)
Mom--Alpha Epsilon Phi (President at U of Michigan Chapter)
Dad--ZBT (University of Michigan)
Brother-in-law--AEPi (Drake U.--now closed)
Aunt--Alpha Epsilon Phi (Northwestern U.--now closed)
Cousin--ZBT (University of Michigan)
Distant Cousin--Alpha Epsilon Phi (University of Illinois)

I think it's funny how in my immediate family no one has pledged the same sorority/fraternity...
It's also funny to hear my Dad and cousin talk about ZBT stuff, since they're both members of the same chapter--things are DEFINITELY different there than when my dad was in the Chapter:)

I am a Gamma Phi Beta from Southern Cal and my youngest sister is the only other Greek in our family (for now!!) -- she is a Kappa Alpha Theta from Loyola-Marymount (in Los Angeles)

We have an ongoing sibling rivalry about which sorority we will get our mom to become an AI in -- I say I should have first dibs 'cuz I am the oldest...my sister says she is the most darling daughter because she is the youngest!! LOL! And my mom just throws up her hands and sighs "Now girls, stop fighting!" I doubt either of us will ever get her off the fence because that would show who she really likes the best!! ;) :p

Sigh!:rolleyes:
