why? dunno
perhaps 'cause the State U's, the ones with law schools, med schools and the aggie ones...seem more homogeneous, and the
private ones...some indeed great, vary so widely. No doubt that
DePauw, Centre, W & L are great greek schools, no arguments.
It is hard to compare Iowa Wesleyan with W & L, easier to compare Illinois with Indiana. But whatever, I made an arbitrary
choice, but it is certainly not cast in concrete. Anything is open.
About "boy Pi Phis" no offense intended as a later post seemed to concur. I heard it twice...once from an angry Pi Phi at Kansas
U feeling the men's group was stealing their name, and again at
the U of OK when a friend was colonizing Pi Kappa Phi there and
there was Pi Kappa Alpha there calling themselves Pi Kaps....so it
was intended by the Pi Kap rep to distinguish the men Pi Kappa
Phis from the women Pi Beta Phis...again, nothing insulting.
So, you kinda jumped the gun on this one.
Pi Kappa Alpha, by the way, was called Pi Kap on many a campus,
and I never heard Pike 'til the 60s...In Kansas, Pi Kappa Alpha was generally called PiKA...I heard of them being called Pikas, too,
but I know not where. PiKA was a good outfit at K-State.
Pi Kappa Phi, a historic southern fraternity, has made some good
inroads in recent years...in the north. So, Pi Kaps, no cheap shot,
not a negative notion at all.
For those offended, stuff it up your nose.
