Princeton University Greeks
 

Hello,

I am trying to re charter a chapter of Sigma Chi at Princeton University and I need some help with regards to the unique Greek system that I know doesn't exist on Princeton. I know they have Greeks, but not associated with the school.

If anyone could help me or put me in contact with some sororities presidents that would be great. Please PM me.

Thank you,

Regards,
Nick

When you say Greeks are there, I take it you mean either underground of locals?

You National would be the best source of information on their feelings. They do make the final decission.:)

Hey Tom, as to sororities, there are three NPC sororities with chapters at Princeton.

They are not underground or locals. The chapters are NIC and NPC chapters, recognized by their national headquarters, but not by the stupid dumb doody headed school.

How would nationals recognize them without the university recognizing them?? That makes no sense to me at all!

Not sure how it works, but it does. Harvard and Santa Clara are also like this. Although, I didn't think Princeton was. We can't even mention the university's name associated with our chapters!

It seems to me that a national org wouldn't place a chapter on a campus that wouldn't recognize it though... Are they even allowed to advertise recruitment? They couldn't do formal with no Greek Life office and no campus Panhel...

That's why the NPHC has city-wide chapters. They are not based on any one campus. My org's chapter there includes Princeton, College of New Jersey and Rider University.

My understanding is that university recognition is not required by Sigma Chi Fraternity IHQ as well.

FYI: This would be re-charter of Sigma Chi's Sigma Chapter which was originally chartered in 1869.

I *think* I know one of the charter members of that chapter.

They were charted in 1991. Google their website--Rho Epsilon, the names are listed. ;)

I'm actually in a fraternity at Princeton University (PKS)... if you want to ask me any questions feel free to PM me

Because it's worth it to them to have a chapter at Princeton/Harvard. They wouldn't necessarily make that kind of exception for West Hooterville U.
