It's like a fake Greek Life site - except they're using real fraternities and sororities along w/ their basic info. They assigned each a brother/sister fraternity, which of course is not real, and I know that the chapter name they assigned to ASA doesn't exist.

where did you find that??

I find it a little offensive.....the stereotypes and such being displayed there.

I was googling Alpha Sigma Alpha and it came up.

I like that Sarah Michelle Gellar's picture is president of ZTA, and Ryan Phillippe's picture is president of PiKA. The descriptions of the chapters kill me.

I wonder if this is some demented fanfic or someone trying to copy the rushing of houses like ABC Greek did.

I'm half tempted to email the guy. If you go to the questionaire it has all types of superficial questions and lists some guys AOL address as the Director of Greek Life.

Hahaha...buffy and that girl from the OC are on 'exec' for ZTA. hahaha. I'll admit it's funny. But, still it bugs me.

That's so random - why would you take the time?

While I am pretty appalled about the site itself, I do have to say that the description of ASA is pretty dead-on accurate.

Whoever put it together must be two things: 1)weird, and 2) anxious to get sued for Trademark infringement.

That Phi Delt house looks like the one at UNL?

For Sigma Chi, the Alpha Lambda chapter is Wisconsin -Madison. However, the chapter house shown is Georgia Tech's.

Also, both Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Phi Epsilon use a combination of both state and Greek letter - i.e. The Sigma Phi Epsilon chapter at UK is "Kentucky Alpha", the Phi Delta Theta chapter at UK is "Kentucky Epsilon". Thus Phi Delta Theta does not have a "Delta Beta" chapter nor does Sigma Phi Epsilon have a "Gamma Gamma" chapter.

Yes, the Phi Delta Theta house shown is the chapter house at Nebraska.

Written about ASA: "[ Bottom line: if you don't fit into any of the other groups, you'll fit in here. ]"

Ok...that is pretty rude. What kind of loser put this site together??

The "Chi Omega's" chapter designation is the same designation as our Chi-O chapter here at USF.

This site is pretty creepy...

Obviously I'm no legal expert, but could you guys get the page taken down by claiming that his page violates their Terms of Service?

Someone's HQ needs to send a DMCA (Digital Millenium Copyright Act) takedown notice to Freewebs. That would probably be enough to get the plug pulled.

i might be an idiot but i just don't GET it. what's the point? it's just a bunch of different greek orgs with (mostly accurate though vastly generalized) descriptions. you can't do anything with it like fake rush or rate the houses or whatever.

edit: oh wait, i just realized what the questionare was for. ok, now i'm irritated.
