They had a house on Athens (I went to their house during rush for the first couple of days so I know it was there-it is now the pi kappa phi house). They tried to reorganize in 1995 or 96-they sold or leased their house to Pi Kappa Phi (I am not sure if they still own this house TechAphi was a member of this chapter-she may know). They had a lodge for a couple of years and then closed all together. I can't answer the Phi Mu question except that during pledgeship we had to know every sorority that was on campus and there was no mention of Phi Mu ever being there. I know my rush book says that Delta Zeta was the first sorority but I will dig out to double check.
edit to say: found rush book-DZ was the first sorority est at A&M. The book did not say when Aphi was established.

Either way, I don't think A Phi was there in '75. I think they were there closer to '89/'90/'91. I know they were there by '91 because they extended a bid to an African American woman that year and it caused a big ruckus on campus.
What I remeber about Phi Mu was that there was a 'greek' year book at A&M and they mentioned it in the year book. I came across the year book in the stacks next to the regular Aggieland yearbooks, and it did mention Phi Mu being there back in '75 or so. The only reason this tid-bit of information has stuck in my head was that someone wrote in the margin of the page 'Phi Mu - died at TAMU'. This person also wrote some very unsavory things about all the sororities, it was proabaly a guy......
