Houston Baptist University has required worship and a strict sexual code of conduct. They also have national NPC & NIC greek organizations.

Apparently I stand corrected, then; ADPi has chapters at both Baylor and Samford. I find it interesting that I had to search very hard to find information about Union & Samford's requirements of their students-these weren't requirements splashed across their websites in bold letters or made easily-accessible.

I know that Baylor also has a written policy against homosexuality, so they might be more conservative than they present themselves. Current WNBA player and former Baylor women's basketball player Brittney Griner has said in interviews that her coach explicitly disapproved of her openly expressing her sexuality while she was there.

I didn't think Union was that strict anymore. I have a former student who was a KD there and I know they danced and had parties. She never mentioned being required to attend chapel.

I wonder if Charleston Southern, where ADPi will be colonizing in the fall, is very strict with a moral code. I get that vibe from the website.

Shorter University got a lot stricter when the Southern Baptists staged a takeover some 5 years ago and brought in some administrators from Charleston Southern. A huge amount of faculty and students left.

Shorter has Phi Mu, Zeta, and ADPi.

That's how I interpreted it too.

What denomination if any were they affiliated with before?

P.S. "Southern Baptist Takeover" would be a good name for a band.

I guess you could say that they used to be nominally Southern Baptist before.

I just got this image of the electric versions of instruments of the bible (Electric Tamborine?)

Can't believe I forgot Pepperdine. They have national GLOs and forbid sexual activity, possession of pornography, etc. I don't know how strictly they police the kids, but the students are subject to discipline for those activities.

When my mom went to Baylor, there were room checks on Sunday mornings to make sure you went to church. There were also "spot checks" to make sure you had no alcohol in your room.
(My mom recycled a Ten-O-Six lotion bottle for her bourbon. Click the link if you don't know what Ten-O-Six is.)

LOL...the Ten O Six would probably have done the job all on its own and tasted similar without worrying about getting caught by the No-No Po-Po.

The community orchestra I play in rehearses at Oklahoma Christian University, which is a Church of Christ school. That place is uber-conservative. They do have a Greek system comprised of a bunch of locals under school control. Thy have similar strict social codes as some of these other schools.

Mercer is no longer officially affiliated with the Baptists per their website but it is still a pretty conservative school IMHO.

What about the various "Wesleyan" universities?
