But two of my other friends who are in KKPsi both consider themselves Greek.. just in a different way.

I think that's what the OP was getting at -- how some KKPsi members/chapters try to draw a distinction between themselves and "the Greeks" while others do not at all:

I think it's just that they didn't want to be associated with what they perceived as "Greek life." Well, I don't really know why, but that's the only thing I can come up with.

What about your chapters?
It's an interesting campus-by-campus phenomenon, and I've seen it to some extent among all the "music Greeks."
