Eta

Does anyone know why, when naming chapters, we skipped Eta? We have Zeta Something chapters and Theta Something chapters, but no Eta Somethings. Does Eta Pi just sound too scary? But I know other sororities have Etas!

My understanding is that we didn't want to take a chance on the jokes using "ate a something" so we just skipped the letter eta.

I had never ever noticed that we had skipped Eta in the naming of chapters...how interesting!!
I would love to know the reason behind that (if it is the "ate a" thing then i think it was a good call!!). Hope everyone is having a good week!! Happy day after Founders Day!!
