Yup... Duquesne had a couple of locals:
fraternities: Kappa Sigma Phi, Beta Pi Sigma.
sororities: Sigma Lambda Phi, Tau Delta Tau.
Through this forum, I found out what happened to the Sigma Lambda Phi (the Lambs); I knew a whole bunch of them. I had also found out they joined a national sorority (don't remember which). The Tau Delta Tau sorority did the same thing.
by the way, I remember when Sigma Alpha Epsilon (am I right?) used to be Zeta Beta Tau (in Duquesne, of course). Why they changed? don't know.
They even had a chapter of the now infamous Delta Tau Chi...
the fraternity of the movie "Animal House". They shut down this fraternity almost nationwide. I met a guy who was a Delta Tau Chi, who told me in 1990 that his fraternity was reduced to two campuses (I started in Duquesne the year after they were banned in campus).
I went to Duquesne from 1988-1992, B.A.
1992-1995 (M.A.) but ended up graduating in 1997; I had moved and was doing "field work" (independent study).
Thanks for your reply. It is somewhat sad that a new generation does not know that Duquesne University had local fraternities. are you in a fraternity/sorority? Go check out the yearbooks... you'll find some interesting things (I know I did)
I would appreciate if you find out something and let me know. I'd let you know (privately... e-mails and private messages) some of the stuff that went on then.
later,
