Joining Two Fraternities?
I have a little dilemna here. I am in my freshman year, and this fall I pledged Phi Mu Alpha at my school. For any of you who don't know, Phi Mu Alpha is legally a social fraternity, but it acts more as a professional fraternity. (The only reason it is social is so that we don't have to admit women.) Anyways, PMA has been acting essentially as a professional fraternity. It isn't a member of any national organizations, and on our campus it doesn't even appear in the Greek Life information and it isn't a member of the interfraternity council. I am considering pledging a social fraternity next year, either Chi Psi or Sigma Nu hopefully, and I was wondering if it is possible to be in both one of those and PMA. I know that I was specifically prevented from joining another "national fraternity in music" in the PMA bylaws, but I don't know how that applies to other organizations. I don't think there would be a time commitment problem either, as PMA is essentially what you make of it.
