So as you all know, Georgetown has no NPC organizations.

As far as NIC organizations, there was a chapter of Delta Chi there in 1903 when it was a professional law fraternity. Wikipedia says that chapter existed until 1944, 22 years after the org switched to being a general social fraternity.

In 2001, Alpha Epsilon Pi came to Georgetown. In 2007 came Sigma Phi Epsilon, and in 2009, Zeta Psi. I knew the founding group of AEPi and they seemed like cool guys. I don't know the Sig Eps or Zeta Psi members, but it seems like they are all filling a niche.

None of them are officially recognized by the university but are recognized by the fraternities themselves.

NPHC organizations have had representation on campus since at least the 70s. Black fraternal life at Georgetown is a story with various twists and turns because not only are they all city-wide or core chapters, but sometimes Georgetown students would be moved from one core chapter to another. Example -- Georgetown girls used to be included with girls from American's AKA chapter, but later Georgetown, Catholic, and Trinity spun off into their own city-wide chapter.

Georgetown has Alphas, Kappas, Ques, AKAs, Deltas, and a Zeta. There was a brief Sigma presence in the 70s.

La Unidad Latina/Lambda Upsilon Lambda and Latinas Promiviendo Comunidad, Lambda Pi Chi also have chapters including Georgetown.

All in all, I would not recommend Georgetown for people who are looking for a large, diverse, and strong Greek experience, but it is fine for a small one to enhance your overall experience at the school.
