Famous Greeks... or are they???

[CutiePie2000]

Georgia O'Keeffe is a Kappa Delta and one of their most famous ones, at that!

She is from Beta chapter at Chatham Episcopal - the KD website describes her as a famed artist and recipient of the nation's highest civilian honor, the Medal of Freedom.

i know this is a repeat, but i feel the need to say it.. i dont know about the rumor of letterman failing out to be true, but if it is, that is odd.. seeing as he donated SO much money to have a whole new building built there, he wanted the new stadium named after him, and he paid the morgtage on the sig chi house (you should see the thing, its like a friggin apartment complex!).. so whether he made it out or not, he sure does claim it.. and if anyone is interested, i do have some pictures of biff from homecoming...if anyone wants to see them, i can scan em..

He graduated, but I heard at least one semester he didnt make grades. Sorry if I implied that he failed out. But I know he was not a student at all. He always jokes about it on his show.

I think this was on another thread, but...Steven Speilberg is a Theta Chi and puts stuff into his movies. The prevalling story is that he hated his chapter, or did not have the best time there as got made fun of for having the camera all the time. Who knows. But must love the fraternity in general as puts it in his movies. Whats neat is that when I was little kid pretending to be indianna jones, i never thought that the director who made those films would one day be my brother, and throw up little acknowledgements to me in the movies I loved. Or that I would thinking of being a director like him. That is so cool. To me, i guess you guys wouldn't care.

Thanks for the post about Tim McGraw. I knew he was in a fraternity but I never knew which one. Does anyone know if Kenny Chesney was ever in a fraternity? He said in an interview about playing in houses, but he never mentioned that he was a member. Hmmm... Those are two men I would mix with anyday! Haha!]


Kenny Chesney is a Lamnbda Chi.
