Maybe you should use your time to check out some history instead. Beta Theta Pi and Phi Delta Theta are both older than Sigma Chi and have what I assume would be a "legit amount" of chapters.

How many do they have? Since I remember doing the search and Delta Upsilon was the only ones with decent number of chapters left (as in the two digits at least).
Sorry I used google and found this thread. If it's not that important to you or if it makes you annoyed that I did so, just don't post. Don't be so immature about it.
Having pride in your organization doesn't mean Im bashing others. I love the TKEs, their like our brother fraternity at my school. I work with a KA and their tight too. That's not what I'm trying to say which again many are failing to miss the point. SAEs are basically our rivals since they crush us in greek week. Sigma Chi is very uprising and has big numbers which is good. These are facts that I am saying. Just because I said that SAM is the most involved on my campus doesn't mean the other organizations on my campus are bad nor does it mean that nobody else is good.
Which is a fact that at my college SAM does run stuff but that's because we work hard to do so . 1600-1700 community services hours in a year, 2 years in a row, half our SGA is SAM, lots of Orientation Leaders are SAMs, our homecoming committee is mainly SAMs, faculty that is mainly SAM alumnis and some actives, basically all events there is we are all there and doing what we can, we are actually a serious organization. Again, not bashing anyones organizations, but I have seen chapters that just party and die out in 3 years and don't care about anyone else and everybody at their college hates them with a passion.
I think SAM is great because it knows how to do a fraternity. If you seen some other organizations (not mentioning which) from what I heard about their rituals and how they operate, it's not nearly as legit. Some fraternities out there literally try to kill you or basically take advantage of you. Some don't make their rituals have meaning and some just love to fuck around with you or actually attempt manslaughter. You can't blame me for liking an organization that I feel like I can actually trust.
And you shouldn't blame me for thinking that. The fact that people still die in fraternity incidents is sad as hell. When I saw my U of Maryland chapter just closed for alchohol poisoning I just thought wow they should go to hell for ruining our name. Since after being at my school, I would never think it's like that anywhere else.
But yeah, again it's called everyone chapter is completely different, a fact of life that some need to get over. No fraternity is globally identical, but if you went greek and enjoyed it, then w/e anyone has to do say that's bull is bs.
