Down here at Texas, we have 3 of them....SAE, FIJI, KA.

I would describe them all as very wealthy houses with a very long and well noted history on campus, all having very powerful alumni. The top chapters have been so for a long time. The chapters themselves are very strong in numbers and are desired equally by a huge percentage of rushees. Members are all from well established, affluent, upper class families and usually have some sort of family tie-in to the chapter that they are a part of. Guys from all of these chapters share many common interests, whether it be politics, music, dress, hunting and fishing, playing golf, etc. Guy's grades are good and many spend their summers interning for senators, attorneys, bankers, etc. etc. These chapters generally have the best and most well attended parties...and are all very popular among the sororities....but generally only do things with the equally top sorority chapters on campus. Also, you don't know what this is....but the top houses generally produce most of the Silver Spurs and Texas Cowboys on campus.......the guys that shoot the cannon and take care of BEVO during and away from football games. They are very high honors and most always awared to fraternity members.
