re: UNColorado -
Greeley, that was the town! I didn't get in town until after
dark, and never found the house (Im sure it wasn't marked).
I stopped by another fraternity house in the neighborhood...
Sigma Something....prolly Sigma Chi....they were very hospitable.
They told me the chapter had been closed, but they all knew
one former Lambda Chi who was still on campus. We tried
to call him, but he wasn't home. So I drove on to Boulder
where I was staying.
I looked up the date in my Paed: 11/9/1990...that
"one last 'good' Lambda Chi" wasn't YOU, was it??? What
a coincidence if it was!

It might very well have been. Actually in 1990, there were a fair number of us left on campus - but, by 1993, when I graduated with my Master's, I believe I was the last to still be in school.
If you talked to Sigma Chi's, then yes, it was me. I was good friends with several of those guys, and even got a bid from them, DX, and LXA when I rushed. Of course I made the correct decision, but stayed friends, even to this day. One of them was a huge help in getting a key promotion at a local call center many moons ago.
If it was Sigma Pi, then they were referring to someone else from LXA that I did not want to consider a brother....let's just say back in those days the SP boys used a certain LXA brother as a "connection" for recreational pharmaceuticals...he was well known on campus, much to our detriment.
Problem in determining which Sigma "X" you visited is that both houses were white in color. Sigma Pi's house has large columns on the front, and a neon sign at the top of the house. Sigma Chi, smaller house, no columns, and always displayed their Norman Cross badge above the house. Sigma Chi has moved several times since then, Sigma Pi is still in their same house.
I hope it was Sigma Chi...truly a "small world" kind of moment!
