I don't know about the Iota Phi Theta/I Phelta Thigh bit, but I can vouch for the Wine Psi Phi bit

Wine Psi Phi and their sister sorority, Beta Phi Burgundy has been classified by some as a subrosa group. These are organizations who are social and drinking is their "purpose?". In 1977 a brother of Wine Psi Phi died as a result of drowning while drunk? (I don't know the specifics offhand, but I do know it occured in Tennessee).

For more info on these two subrosa groups, read Wrongs of Passage or Broken Pledges, both written by Hank Newer.

Hope this helps.
