if that were true why do you guys need an NAS at the end? why not join up and be a co-ed fraternity?

The letters clearly have meaning to both groups. Grow up and get over it.

I think this is the post that signalled the beginning of the end of my politeness on GC.

^^^Again, I miss this guy.

Would it have been "cleaner" if they had followed the examples of Sigma Phi Epsilon and Alpha Delta Pi? Sure, but it was their call to make, not anyone else's, and grousing about it isn't likely to accomplish anything except creating hard feelings.

^^^ I like this guy. Don't ever change.

I miss this guy too.

Good question.

Too bad KappaTarzan hasn't posted in years.

insurance reasons?

maybe their founders wanted it this way?
