Anyway, when I went through two years ago, it was just UCO and NSU that had TKE chapters. Oklahoma State University finally got a chapter this semester and I recently found out that Southwestern Oklahoma State University will have a chapter within a year and a half. So, within a year and a half, Oklahoma will be back up to 4 TKE chapters and hopefully within the next couple of years, we will be able to get the chapter at OU restarted. My cousin was a TKE at OU and he said the alumni support would be unbelievable there if we could start one back up. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Awesome stuff bud, I'm also an Okie boy!
I was Initiated into Sigma Nu at the University of Tulsa. We were at about 70 members then (tied with KS for manpower). About 5-7 years or so ago there was some event that divided the active chapter. Nationals came in, more went Alumni, and they shut them down when they were down to like 10 members.
Oklahoma State has always been strong. They got booted (hazing?), but are back and very strong again.
Oklahoma University was VERY strong in the 80's. Then most of the chapter got kicked by nationals for something or other. They have had a hard time getting back since (my pledge class had to go down and help them with rush one year). I think they are around 30 or 40 members now; very small for OU.
Our UCO chapter was founded in 2002, but they appear to be doing very well.
