PANTHERTEKE 07-11-2008 03:44 PM

My mom mentioned that my uncle was Greek, but she couldn't remember which GLO... I'm not really close with him and he lives in Tampa, so I wouldn't know.

My 3rd cousin is a Fiji at my school.

That's about it. If my sons go to a school with a strong TKE chapter, then I wouldn't make it an option for them :p

LucyKKG 07-11-2008 04:22 PM

Me - Kappa, duh
Bf - Theta Chi
Dad - Rho Epsilon, a real estate fraternity. Lol! He didn't tell me about it until a while into my local/KKG days.
Sis - I hope she goes Greek!!

children: it remains to be seen, but the family pin pillow is quite a collection! Many choices are there, though they'll likely be disowned if not AGD or SAE :D
Being Greek is not a new idea in our family!!!! It's a matter of where you fit best on your own campus!

I love researching family history and knew that my grandmother was in a sorority at Baker University in Baldwin City, Kansas. I just confirmed today that she was an Alpha Chi Omega initiated in the spring of 1926.
