Texas Greeks
 
Whats up people. So maybe i'm blind or something but I hardly see that many greeks from Texas on the boards. Where are ya'll??

You're blind. Ha ha! Just kidding. :)

There are many, many Texan Greeks around. In fact, there was quite a long thread not so long ago about Greeks just in the Houston area. I can think of six of us off hand, though I know there are more.

I am a Texan living in Atlanta, Georgia (originally from Houston). I work with the Gamma Iota chapter of Alpha Phi. My collegiate chapter was Epsilon Omega.

OMG.....Hi Amy :)

***side note***
So the week I moved up here I check my email and my DZ sister Jenna has sent an email that says this:

"Hey, I know you just moved to RI and everything but I just wanted to make sure you knew that they "young alums" were going for happy hour..."

Like she thought maybe I'd just stop into town for happy hour or something...it was pretty funny!...Guess you had to be there....okay, I think I will stop typing stupid things now!

I did see that!!! I can't believe none of the Deans would help them get the cash :) But that physics professor was GREAT :)

XiLovin 08-08-2002 04:55 PM

Yeah, I work around several of the Dean's. Everyone was giving them a hard time about it on Tuesday morning. They guy that was on academic probation is a Delt along with my best friend. That was hilarious. Also, the girl that showed the card to prove her "membership" is my AXiD sister. It was pretty exciting.

I go to school in SA, but am originally from Corpus. I am here for the summer and am going to stay here for the fall as well. I'll be going back up to SA in the spring.

It is not raining here. It is a little gloomy and is supposed to rain a lot tonight and tomorrow. We are under a flash flood watch I think, and I am presuming that you all would be under one as well.

Question - What's there to do in Kingsville??? :p

Oh yeah, and are you from Kingsville originally or just "chillin?"

BearyCuteAPhi 08-08-2002 05:45 PM

Hey there! I'm from good 'ole texas too. ;) I love it!

Coolness... I have some friends going to school @ UTSA there in SA and a cousin that goes to a private school (can't remember which one) there as well so I'm in the SA area a lot to visit / hang out.

I'm originally from Alice.. decided to stay close to home for the first couple of years.. I will be moving to Dallas in 2 weeks.

And not much to do in Ktown :p A lot of the times we'll hang out @ the Lambda Chi lodge or have random parties at the sister's apartments. Last weekend to we went to CC to get out of here for a whlie and hit random bars/"clubs". (I will make a trip to CC ANYDAY for Olive Garden or Wendy's :p )

There are 4 private universities in SA. 1) St. Mary's University (where I go to school) 2) University of the Incarnate Word 3) Our Lady of the Lake University and 4) Trinity University

And Olive Garden......I've been craving it!! Thanks for reminding me. :( Hehehe.

I recently got back form San Antonio, while we were there we went to Austin, I had a blast and wanted to see if anyone can comment on college life there, it seemed like it would be a blast, did MAtthew McCaugnehey go to UTA????

AggieDZ 08-10-2002 04:32 PM

Oooh, be careful..... while we Aggies like to refer to "that other school in Austin" as t.u., the University of Texas is most commonly referred to as UT..... UTA would be U. Texas @ Arlington.....totally different city.

However, M.M. WAS a Delt at t.u. and their greek system is top notch. It really is a great school and their Greek system definately reflects that as well.

He went to UT which is in Austin, not to be confused with UTA-which is in Arlington.

I didn't go there myself, but my father, mother, brother, all aunts & uncles and several cousins went there. I am trying to do some brainwashing on my kids to make sure they end up there too. Everyone I know who has gone there loved it. I'm sure there are some 'horns on this list who would like to comment (and don't listen to those Aggies...). :)

Heehee-my Aggie sister-we posted at almost the same time! You said something nice about UT! I will have to record that in my record book. I went to a TAMUS school, so I'm not totally biased, and well, UT doesn't have a DZ chapter, so so far, A&M is looking more like the place for my daughter if they or Tech don't get one in the next 13 years! Priorities, right? My brother won't hear of it-but wanna hear something funny? He married an Aggie Tri-Delt that he met in law school--and she is allllll for it.

Haha, yeah, i've been here for the summer. Well, except for that week i went home and to Mexico....gotta love the summer road trips :D

Ahhhhhh, the Ponderosa, we have had some fun nights out there this summer, but nothing, NOTHING compared to the blowouts we had during the school year. I mean, Drinco De Mayo was off the hook as was our Bid House celebration. With school fixin to start i think the 'Rosa is primed for a bash in the near future ;)

Greek in progress?
 
Hi Folks--

I'm a Texan By Choice--Houston-area.

If my pursuit of AI is successful I'll be initiated through a chapter either at Univ of Houston or Texas A&M. (Sorry, can't give you TOO many clues yet. <g>)

I was born a Jersey/New England Yankee, but I'm here to stay now. Does this count?

Adrienne
:D

texas*princess 01-13-2003 11:25 PM

Woohooo!!! Go EAGLES!!!!


Good to see new Texans on GC!

adduncan, sure it counts, you chose Texas :p

White_Chocolate 01-14-2003 11:52 AM

Not many Greeks in Texas???

This would be a big shock to me. . .everyone knows that in Texas, if you aren't in ROTC or some regiment program, you'd better be a Greek!!!!!

adduncan,

I wish you the best of luck in procuring initiation from a chapter at the latter. Especially if you get a chance to come and spend time in College Station.

Nothing beats being an Aggie, except maybe being a Greek Aggie :D

Resident Texan... though my chapter (now defunct) was Alpha Alpha Chapter of Alpha Sigma Phi at the University of Oklahoma. Don't know why, but National HQ hasn't tapped the Texas Greek community yet!

White_Chocolate 01-14-2003 04:20 PM

Oh, I'm a Texan too
My chapter used to be at SMU but it closed
I have no clue why either
But it's been instilled in me by all of my older friends and relatives. . .

Greek life is mandatory. . .and I love it.
