That said, don't murder me for reporting this info, lol....

Wikipedia says that the late Octavia Butler is a Delta. Is this true? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categor..._Theta_sisters

Just curious, because she is my favorite science-fiction novelist.
I have never heard Octavia Butler mentioned as a Soror. Plus they also list Debbie Allen still as a Delta. Chances are that Ms. Butler is not a Soror.

Oh, okay cool.

Here are the Alpha and APO wiki pages, just so people can see examples of how these things can be done:

Her education information on the website says "After getting an associate degree from Pasadena City College in 1968 [4], she next enrolled at California State University, Los Angeles. She eventually left CalState and took writing classes through UCLA extension." She lived in Seattle in her later years. None of the obits mention a sorority.
