My fraternity was a local for 25 years before affiliating with a small national, and then that national, Theta Kappa Nu, merged with Lambda Chi Alpha. My local wasn't Greek, but was considered a fraternity. We were PIES, Polytechnic Institute Engineering Sciences (I think). The thing that sucks, is that we don't have much info on this group and since they were here from 1900-25, as far as I know, all of the alumni have passed away. Our only hope at getting more info is that some old TKN brothers will have some info. I know IHQ has one of our PIES badges. I think in the early 1900's, there were a couple other locals, but all of the fraternities on campus for the last 75 years have been nationals, and were founded with the intent of being a specific national.
