Bob Dole is always talking about being a Kappa Sigma. And has for many years.
When he was running for Vice President in 1976, he visited the University of Kentucky campus and made a "secret" stop by the Kappa Sigma house. No press, no advanced notice. One of the reasons it was secret was that he just wanted to "hang out" with the chapter. And for security reasons as well. Of course the next day, the whole campus was abuzz about it. All he and the UK Kappa Sigmas would say when questioned about his visit to the house was to confirm that he was there. 
While running for President in 1996, he returned to UK and this time, made a more public point of visiting the Kappa Sigma house. I think he may have also given a speech from there as well.

He actually also made a comment to Sam Donaldson on an appearance on one of his shows. Towards the end of the show Donaldson said "You must come back to visit sometime," and Dole replied "Of course, Kappa Sigs gotta stick together."
Whatever people think of Dole, he is genuinely proud to be a Kappa Sig, which I appreciate.
