1 Sigma Kappa at Grand Valley State
1 Sigma Kappa at Western Michigan
1 Alpha Chi Omega? at Western Michigan
3 Phi Mu at U of M Dearborn - all 3 deactivated for random reasons
1 Delta Phi Epsilon at U of M Dearborn
1 Phi Sigma Sigma at U of M Dearborn


The two Sigma Kappas were best friends since they were like born and ended up joinign the same sorority! It'd be awesome to have that double bond!

Only a few that I know of, but there could easily be more. One good friend is a Kappa Delta (and I heard that a couple of other girls from high school were as well), one Chi Omega, and there was one Kappa Alpha Theta (who I wasn't really friends w/ in high school but recognised her).
These are only the ones that stayed at the university in the same town as our high school, I don't know about others, and there could have been more. It'll be interesting to find out who else went greek at the 10 year reunion (halfway there).

1 - Delta Zeta

first, I didn't have many friends, 2nd GLOs aren't that huge up here in the Great North. In fact my first uni didn't have any. It wasn't till I transfered to Windsor that I ran into my HS friend who by that time was already in DZ 2 years. She's the reason I checked out Greek Life, but somehow I ended up Phi Sig instead of DZ :confused: (she ended up disaffiliating though the following year, and look at me, still here!)

My best friend from high school is a founding sister in a local (Delta Pi Omega @ UmassDartmouth). I'm sooo proud of her.

I went to an all girls high school in Dallas, and we had about 140 in our graduating class. Out of my core friends, none went Greek!

At our 5 year hs reunion, I remember that we had a few Chi O's, a couple of Kappas, a ZTA, a DG, a Pi Phi, and an Alpha Phi-but that was 5 years ago, and I can't really remember who went where.

As far as I know, I'm the only girl from my high school class who went Greek. Most people from my town don't go to college, and, of the ones who did, I'm pretty sure I'm the only Greek!

My best friends in high school went to 2 other local schools, and neither of them are Greek. It's kinda lonely when I go home...

To the best of my knowledge, I am the only fraternity member out of a graduating class of 500 or so.

I have a cute story...
 
Actually, interestingly enough, one of my best friends and I pledged Alpha Kappa Alpha, though at different times. Neither one of us expressed any real interest before coming to college; her mother is a soror and a graduate advisor and I had been involved with AKAteens in middle/high school so we both had an idea of the work and time put into being a member.

Anyways, I crossed in Spring 04 and went abroad the following spring. Our communication had become sort of weak while I was gone; I assumed, being junior year for both of us, that her work load had increased. Upon returning in July, she e-mailed me her new contact info (I lost my planner and phone in Italy), expressing a huge desire to speak to me in person, or at least over the phone. Long story short: I couldn't go, but I did call her ASAP to learn the urgency of her situation. She greeted my "Hey, _____" with a "S-k-double e, W-double e, skee-wee, my soror ______, SKEE-WEE!":D And since she's crossed, we've become super tight (she was a lone ace and has to carry on chapter duties by herself, now--and since I was president before I left and am now vice, I had a lot of info to help her through) through ALL the (AKA and otherwise) thick and thin! ;)

Another one of my close friends turned soror from high school crossed the sands right before me and called me to give me words of encouragement in my journey to Alpha Kappa Alpha! Other good male friend is an Omega and had the nerve to tell my father before me (he's frat), lol! But this, too, was while I was abroad and kinda made since. He made up for it, though! :p

My other HS friends are GDI and my classmates are as well.

One of my best friends in high school went TKE the semester after I did, same chapter. Another good friend from high school had an older brother in my chapter, and his father was an alum of the chapter also. Alas, he just wasn't the college type I guess. I think it would be cool to have a father and a brother that shared that bond with you. Although it would suck when your big bro and dad kept scrolling you to do everything...lol

I only know of three people out of my class of about 200 that went Greek. Two went Sigma Nu, one Sigma Chi.

Tom Earp 03-26-2006 08:42 PM

None of Mine did!:(

But, they are all retired now and I am still working!:rolleyes: :mad:

But talking about Suck!!!!;)

ilikehazing 03-26-2006 10:55 PM

Damn, I've got alot.

Of my graduating class, 60 of 550 went greek. Probably about 40 of them I hung out with on a regular basis.

We have about 5 Sigma Chi's, 5 Sig Taus, 8 Tri-Delts, 5 Kappas, a couple Phi Gam's. Got alot of random people who I expected never to go greek. I got real bored and actually listed who all went to what sororities/fraternities and where.

I just reconnected with a high school friend and found out she went ADPi at College of Charleston. I mentioned to her that I recalled hearing about another girl we graduated with going ADPi at CofC.

She said, "Yes, she was my big sister!" LOL! That was nice to hear. :) Other than that, I know my high school best friend went Alpha Chi Omega but left the school and the sorority behind with it. I don't really know of anyone else but I'm SURE there are others.

I only know of one high school friend who went greek. He pledged Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. as an undergrad. He told me about our high school reunion (I didn't attend) and made no mention of anyone else who went Greek. I've only been a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha a year, lol. :)
