I'm not sure if you are referring to the saying "Once a Phi Sig always a Phi Sig", but I think tons of orgs use that. Also, I was a Pike sweetheart and it was not something the guys in that chapter ever really used. Because if it had some tie ritually I am a)sure you woudn't reference that on a public message board and b)wouldn't know that about each others rituals. Just a thought...
Of course, if you aren't talking about that then smack my mouth and call me Fanny!!!
Also, yes, one of Chi Omega's five founders was Dr. Charles Richardson. The 4 ladies had gotten together hoping to start a Greek org. like the men had, they knew Dr. Richardson because he taught at the U of Arkansas and they knew he had been a Kappa Sig so they approached him for help. He led them in the right direction then assisted them later by drafting our first ritual based on the Eleusinian mysteries. While I have no way of knowing, I don't think our ritual is anything similar to that of Kappa Sigma - no similar symbols or crests etc. So, while it did state in my pledge book that because of "Sis Doc's" affiliation with Kappa Sig we have a special place for them in our hearts so to speak, there is NOT an official brother/sister relationship. However, we did not have them on my campus, so I don't know how the 2 groups interact on campuses with both orgs.
