From Erik

The Sigma chapter of TKE at Cornell went inactive back in the 30s. There was a local at
Cornell (actor Dan Duryea was in the chapter). They approached TKE about becoming a
chapter, but they wanted to keep the name "Scorpion." Since Scorpion started with an S
as Sigma did, TKE agreed and ever since it has been known as Scorpion chapter instead
of Sigma. At the Conclave in '59 a skirmish developed whether they were allowed to keep
the designation Scorpion or would have to now revert to Sigma. Fair is fair said the fraters,
and Scorpion is OFFICIALLY, now and forever, the chapter.


Hopefully He will get back on soon!!!
