Impressions of SAE and frats in general

Isn't SAE a Jewish fraternity? I'm not trying to be disrespectful, I was just wondering.

SAM (Sigma Alpha Mu) is historicalaly Jewish, but initiates members of all religions.

Yeah, I knew Sammy was but (for some reason) I always thought SAE was, too. Thanks for pointing that out. I guess I was wrong, this entire time..lol

SAE's principal founder and his father were both Baptist ministers. While our Ritual does not make any overt references to religion, the morals and philosophy written by him are definitely compatible.

You know, there are great chapters of SAE at both my schools and I didn't realize it wasn't Jewish. How could I not know? I pride myself on usually knowing about the various organizations. I'm sorry for confusing that with SAM (another great fraternity). Well, to the OP, it's a great organization! Be proud!
