Most Chapters Chartered!
 
My organization is at Alpha Epsilon Nu Chapter. Is any other organization gone to three letter charters?

Nope, our newest chapter (installed in Germany a few months ago) is Eta Mu.

How many chapters chartered is that then? I could figure it out, but I'm too lazy http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif I'm unsure because Delta Upsilon names the chapter after the institution it is at, i.e. Miami Chapter (at Miami University of Ohio).

DU has had about 150 I believe.

According to my calculations it's the 709 chapter chartered.

from Alpha to Omega 24

So from Alpha to Omega Omega is 24 x 24
or 576

From Alpha to Epsilon is 5 and 5 x 24 is 120

And the third letter is Nu. And Nu is the thirthteenth letter.

So
Alpha Epsilon Nu is
576 + 120 + 13 = 709

It is 709, but you've got two errors that cancel each other out. The three letter chapters have only finished Alpha Alpha ? to Alpha Delta ? which is 96. The 120 in the addition is that 96 plus the 24 for the since letters.

The way I do my calculations quickly is to remember that each of the double letter chapter is a multiple of 25 and work from there, so Pi Pi is #400.

Interesting, I know TKE doesnt use the Eta designation, which might be messing with everyone's counts if they do the same thing. Does anyone know why this happens? The only reason I can think of is that you don't have the Eta Pi Chapter, or something else silly like that.

Ps. I believe TKE is at Upsilon Gamma right now.

Somes fraternities, use the state, then a letter, such as California Nu, which I think is our chapter of Sig Ep.

Theta has 123 active chapter, and about 30 more that are no longer active. I think we are on Theta Beta now in terms of chapters, but I am not quite sure.

TKE was the first to crack 300, and I think they are now close to 450, or something like that...........
