The reason was that Kappa Sig has a Caduceus (entwined snakes) on their COA and I thought that this meant that they were a medical fraternity and so, not for us.

I was 17 and hadn't a clue.
LOL, I was strongly opposed to any group that used snakes, I have a paralyzing fear of them. Kappa Sig and Theta Chi were out right away. I was also turned off by Phi Kappa Sigma because they almost exclusively refer to themselves as "The Skulls" and I thought it made them sound sketchy.
