You can also check with the fraternities on campus to see if they have "social members". Several fraternities at my campus had these members. Basically, if you joined Phi Psi at one college and then transfered to our college (which didn't have Phi Psi), you would contact a couple of the fraternities, get to know the members, and then become a "social member" (after being invited). You would be able to go to their parties, play intermurals on their teams, hang out at their houses, etc. But, you would not be allowed to go to meetings or have a vote on chapter policies. Also, you would pay dues (not a much as chapter members). It's worth checking out.

Side note, I collect old yearbooks. I have some from Southern Methodist University. Back in the 50's, SMU had a group called "Stray Greeks". It was a social organization for men who were members of fraternities that did not have a chapter at SMU. I think it's a pretty cool idea. Too bad it's not something other campuses have.

Also, Sigma Chi does not knowingly allow members who were previously initiated into other fraternities.
