There is some overlap mentioned that I think might be too much. I can't imagine someone pledging Alpha Phi Omega and Gamma Sigma Sigma in the same semester, but similarly, I can't imagine pledging Alpha Phi Omega and Kappa Kappa Gamma in the same semester. Similarly, if a person is running for office in one of the organizations, the fact that they already hold an office in the other is a valid issue in determining whether to vote them into the office. Having said that, the Alpha Phi Omega brother who was president when she appointed me as Parlimentarian was also pledge mistress (or whatever the appropriate term is) for Kappa Kappa Gamma. (she also had a 3.8 that semester and I think she was a Civil Engineering major)

There is a great deal of overlap in the concepts behind Alpha Phi Omega and Gamma Sigma Sigma. I can imagine people being comfortable in either, but to be comfortable in both does take more work and understanding on the relationship between the two groups on campus...
