Hey, I'm from Oakland California. To me Plattville is just a small insignificant cow town. Although I do notice I did spell it correctly in the first post, I see no reason to actually go back and edit my second post thank you very much.:p

To me you are an example of why Wisconsin needs to make it harder to get into our state schools.

What would knowing how to spell Platteville have anything to do with grades?? I had a 3.7 GPA and an 1170 on the SAT's coming out of a private California HS, and I got into every school I applied to.

Wow, you sure do your research, but as I said before we are a local fraternity so it should be no surprise that they have a different name. When Phi Sigma Kappa took us over they also took aver 30+ Phi Sigma Epsilon in Wisconsin. From what I know they weren’t struggling fraternities by any means, but only 13 of those still exist today. Platville is Phi Sigma, but we still are pretty close associated, and do have events with one another. One of my goals is to try to get and keep in contact with a few other former Phi Sigma Epsilon fraternities that have gone local and possibly invite them down to stay over at our house sometime.

If Phi Sigma Kappa ever wanted to work with us and actually do something for the Phi Sigs in Stevens Point I might be all for going back to Kappa's, but until they prove to us that they are willing to lift a finger I'm glad to be part of Phi Sigma Chi!

Damn Proud!!

I'm in a local sorority over at Elmhurst College in Illinois and we were originally the Little Sisters of Alpha Tau Omega but they're no longer on campus. Now we're Gamma Chi. I haven't heard of any real organizations with our name but people always get us confused with recruitment guides and Gamma Gamma Chi.
