They pay dues to their club, have guest speakers and social events sponsored by their club and do not interact much with the other chapters in the area. They are very proud members of the organization, they just choose not to affiliate with any of the local chapters.

That's lame.

Isn't Phi Mu an offshoot of ADPi? Did I read that in here somewhere?

NO.

They were both founded at the same university, and had the same professor help them with their "Greek", but one did not come from the other.

NO

ADPi was founded in 1851
Phi Mu was founded in 1852

at the same school and a founder of ADPi and a founder of Phi Mu were roommates

No off-shoot or splinter group of any kind
