I highly doubt it.

I guess its all comes down to personal ethics.

Unless you are tattooed with your old fraternities letters or have been wearing your old fraternity shirts at your new school and really actively trying to start another chapter of your old fraternity, just do like the gays in the Navy.

Dont tell anyone at your new school and pledge a different fraternity.

And even if they do cross reference SS#s, just write yours down and switch the last 2 numbers around.
Without going into the whole "loyally thing" (which may mean different things to different people), the issue isn't so much can he get away with the deceit because that is possible. The issue is what if he is caught? His "new" chapter may not care one way or the other if he is or was a member of another fraternity. However, they may care that he deceived them. And or didn't trust them enough to be honest with them about his situation.

Frankly, I'm guessing resigning and getting a release from the current fraternity shouldn't be much of an issue.
