Greeks in Washington DC
 

Hey guys and gals, I was wondering if there were any greeks in the Washington DC Metropolitan Area

Well, I went to school in DC and pledged there, but I'm back in Texas now-sorry!! :p

I'm from the Dc area...in northern Va!!:D

i go to penn state but call nova my home!

Yeah I go to school in VA and live right outside DC! It is a fun city...;)

Where in the area is everyone from???

I pledged APO at Georgetown and will be going to American in the Fall.

I was raised in Mt. Pleasant/Columbia Heights and currently live in RIggs Park.

I live in Northern Virginia, and am currently working in DC until I go back to NJ for school in September :D

I went to American! Pretty campus. What year are you going to be? Do you know where you're going to live yet?

I'm an Alpha Chi Omega at American University! DC is such a great city- and American is a fun school... we have 7 sororities and 8 fraternities :)

Any questions, feel free to ask!

I'll be a first year grad student in the creative writing program! :) So I won't be living on campus. It IS a pretty little campus!

There are a lot of Greeks from The University of Akron out there right now. One of my sisters has been living out there since she graduated a year and a half ago. She interned out there over the summer and got a job with America's Most Wanted. I'm not sure where exactly she's living now but I do know that she was living with a couple DGs from American when she first went out there.
There is also an ADPi and an Alpha Gam who are interning out there this summer too. Again not sure where exactly they are.
My little sis just graduated and she'll be going to Grad School at American in the fall so I'm sure I'll go there to visit!!

I want to move to DC when I'm finished with school. I have always loved DC! :)

DC Greeks
 

Like dardenr, I also pledged APO at Georgetown--but I am still attending.

I love DC, I'm living in Foggy Bottom now...by GWU. Fun times!:)

Did anyone find internships in DC for the summer. I know I sent out almost 50 resumes and I didnt get any replies

I lucked out EXTREMELY and got an internship in Arlington...however, I did send out tons before I got this one...

I'm From the Area
 

I live in Montgomery Co, MD. I like the area, but I don't take advantage of the city as much as I could or should. The traffic is a b*tch, though. And rent is astronomical...Very style conscious and sort of shallow people live around here, too. From my experience only, not EVERYONE!

in certain areas I would agree with you, but I think the people here are a lot less shallow than bigger cities....although many people overlook DC as a real city just because we don't have any high rise buildings...anyhow, I love it!:D

I live in D.C. as well and I LOVE it :)... while it's true that the prices for things are WAYYYY more expensive than my home in Ohio, it's worth it to have access to so many cultural opportunties and the epicenter of US politics

I agree, I love dc. When choosing a collegeg I wasnted to go to a school in another part of the country so I shoe New England. Living away from dc makes me like it even more. I think after I graduate I would like to move back to the area.

Greeks in Washington? Check the White House.

so do all the greeeks that live in dc go to school in the area?

I am from Anne Arundel Co in Maryland, not too far from DC. I agree that DC is beautiful, and I don't go and sightsee very much either. I went last week when my big sis came in town and it was really fun. I don't go to school at home though, I go to school in Kentucky, I really like it there too.

I go to school in Northern Va only about 20 minutes from the city. I love it!!!!

Same I dont go to school at home, Im at UMass Dartmouth. I think after I graduate that I would move back to the dc area. Hey I like the go-carts in crofton.

I live about 5 minutes from them and I have never been. Ha ha Crofton is where the Frankenfish is...that is so funny.

Anne Marie

I grew up in Montgomery County, I guess I'm one of those shallow and style conscious people. I went to Florida for school and I graduate in December. I will be back home where I understand people two days after graduation. I can't wait. 146 days until I get back home................I'm so flippin' excited!

There is a Pi Kappa Phi Colony at GW. I loved the DC, I just got back from Supreme Chapter there. It was so much fun.

Alright DC Greeks. what do you all do around the area when you get sick of doing the same thing...partyin, clubbin', bar hopping, etc...where do u all head for something different??

PI Kaps in DC
 

I was walking to work one day and i saw a whole lot of pi kaps wearing their letters. I thought it was a conclave/grand chapter. But anyways, DC stuf does get old. Ive lived here all my life so when we get tired of the dc thing we just hang out at Cosi or Starbucks. Insomnia is a cool club to go too as well. This may sound touristy but go to a museum. There is some cool stuff out there. The National Gallery of Art has a new egyptian exhibit, the corcoran has a great exhibit on Jackie Kennedy and there is so much more.

Re: PI Kaps in DC
 

PotentialPledge, I may have asked you already, but where did you attend high school?

I went to Wilson High School

For those who go to school in DC area, I was wondering if your house had a place where you hang out at??? Maybe a bar, or club, or anything.

Okay, cool, I went to Coolidge! (Class of '97)

so darden are you done with college, if not where do you go? My aunt went to coolidge.

My mom and uncle also went to Coolidge, '67 and '83 respectively.

I went to Georgetown Undergrad and I start at American for Grad this Fall, Master of Fine Arts Program in Creative Writing.

congratulations, its always cool to meet people that are from dc.

Hi everybody. I'm representing the N.A.S.T.Y. Nu Beta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. I'm a GW student and I'm here for the summer. For something different check out Bar Nunn on U Street. On Monday nights they have an open mic where you can sing, read poetry, rap, whatever. Also the waterfront at Georgetown is a nice place to chill. A big AAA-PHIII to all my icy cold bros and a phi-skee to all my sorors.
