I was born in Southern Illinois but raised in Madison, Wisconsin. The sheer size of UW-Madison turned me off (I confess, I like the personal touch), so I opted for Lawrence University and its Conservatory of Music in Appleton. A big shout out to all my Kappa sisters and fellow Greeks both here in Madtown and all over the state.

Oshkosh Beta here. We have Betas at Lawrence, and man can they sing! Anyway, we are at UWO, Lawrence and Madison. We are always looking to expand, so if you know of any interest groups or locals, send them my way!

I grew up in milwaukee I went to UW Eau Claire for a year but transferred, I'm sure I would have rushed there if I was planning to stay but I'm in Ohio now.

I've lived in Madison for my entire life, excluding my freshman year of college when I lived in Minneapolis. Now I've transferred back to UW-Madison for my sophomore year, and plan on rushing in the fall.

So I'm not Greek yet, but everything works out, hopefully I will be soon!

I'm a Lawrence University alum, graduated in 1999. Now I live in California and participate in the "No, it's in Wisconsin" conversation on a regular basis

Hey, I was born and raised in a suburb of Chicago but I am a sophomore at Marquette.

Funny Wisconsin story- I'm on the club softball team and we went down to Florida for spring break to play ball and a girl on one of the other teams asked us "oh, where's Marquette?" and we told them Milwaukee, Wisconsin. then she asked "where's that?" so we told her above Illinois. She still looked c onfused so we all look at her and go... "BELOW CANADA". I think she may have gotten the idea then.

Marquette, great school, but I do not like that part of town for the life of me. I don't venture far from the reaches of the UWM camups!!!

I'm also a Lawrence University alum of 1999. I was initiated into Mu Chapter of Phi Kappa Tau there in January, 1996, a chapter I'm still very proud to be connected to as an alum.

I've gotten in the habit of adding "in Wisconsin" whenever I say where I went to school, or I also end up having the "Oh, in New York?" "No, in Appleton, Wisconsin" conversation.

I just graduated from UW-Madison in May. While the Greek System isn't that big in Madison (in comparison to the GDI's), it was the best thing that ever happened to me!! I loved my 4 years in the Greek System and in my sorority Tri Delta. I encourage anyone going to Madison to rush, it makes the huge campus alot smaller and the bonds formed will last forever.
