Yeparoo it is University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College is indeed the same. I do believe we're the only school like this in the nation in which a public and private school is rolled up into one.

Yes, Phi Sigma Sigma was here, it is now the sorority Chi Omega Alpha. They started out as Athena, then to XOA, then PSS, then are now XOA. Some interesting facts about this organization and their relationship w/PSS is that the majority of their current members do not know about this information. Apparently something shady went down back in the PSS years and they gave up their charter. The two main stories are: 1. PSS Nat'l came down and disproved of the heavier members and took their charter. (I'm being serious here..heh) 2. Hazing. So pick whichever you like. The sorority now does not acknowledge their connection w/PSS and neither do a lot of the past members. I also know that when PSS was here the chapter was a healthy 40-50 members (which is HUGE) on this campus so I highly doubt it dealt w/numbers and we also don't have a quota system.
