Erik,

I am not going to toss any more shit onto this thread, but I think I understand where you may be coming from. Hey, maybe not the 'snootiest', but why not the "fraternity/sorority with a long standing tradition"? Whats wrong with tooting your own horn, as long as you're not blasting another org.

For example, Beta Theta Pi:
* had a Beta on the Supreme Court from 1877 to 1975, including the late Justice William O. Douglas
* is a leader among college fraternities with members listed in Who’s Who in America and Canadian Who’s Who — more than any other fraternity
* has more than 85 Rhodes Scholars — more than any other fraternity
* is the first college fraternity to publish an open constitution for public distribution (1879)
* brother Jay Fielder is the half-time starting quarterback for the Miami Dolphins. (lol)

Also, for example, Beta Theta Pi Chapter:
* University of Kansas, since 1934, have had the highest GPA among KU fraternities every semester but five (they finished second in '48, '51, '53, '82, and '00).
* Kansas State University Beta's so dominated the Inter-fraternity Sing that trophy was retired to their house.
* Texas Tech University raised over $10,000 during their annual Beta 500 go-cart philanthropy.
* UCLA hosts their annual Alumni Golf Outing, where Brother Scott McCarron, PGA Pro., regularily attends.
* Georgia Tech has won the Dean Dull (best overall fraternity) 26 of the last 28 years.
* 'Wooglin Night-Club', a date party for Zeta Phi at Mizzou, has been held sing 1926.
* Mizzou Beta's have won the Intramural championship 29 out of the past 36 years.
* at Washington & Jefferson University, is the oldest chapter of ALL GLO'S of continuous existance, founded on June 1, 1842 - they have never been inactive!

Again, its not a bragging forum, its just a way to show some kick-ass unique stuff about your GLO or some of your chapters. I'd love to hear some cool info. about your org.
