But, from this e.mail from Pat Mount (she's involved w/ recruitment of SK):
All Sigma Kappa marks, logos, symbols, etc. are registered, trademarked
and/or word marked so you could NOT use the Sigma Kappa part of the name by
itself. Using the four Greek letters (assuming they, in combination, do not
connote an existing member of the National Pan Hellenic or Inter Fraternity
Council) would not be a problem as far as I'm able to determine. But you
would have to be consistent in using all four together.
Does it mean I can use SKEPi together and use marks, logos of SK? I am not using their history since it does not pertain to use since there isn't another SKEPi around.

That means you cannot use
anything of Sigma Kappa that is copyrighted - their logos, their name, etc. If your letters are going to be SKEPi, you should use logos that have SKEPi, not just SK. Your history shouldn't be based on another SKEPi, there are many locals that have the same name and they do not have the same history. Once agian, your history should be based on you! Your history should start something like "In 2003, a girl named Cristinasmile wanted to start a women's organization on the Mount Ida College campus." It has nothing to do with Sigma Kappa because you aren't Sigma Kappa!
