I know there are other Phi Sigma Chi's, but we are really only close to one and that is the one at UW Platville.

The one at Platteville is just called Phi Sigma.

Wow, you sure do your research, but as I said before we are a local fraternity so it should be no surprise that they have a different name. When Phi Sigma Kappa took us over they also took aver 30+ Phi Sigma Epsilon in Wisconsin. From what I know they weren’t struggling fraternities by any means, but only 13 of those still exist today. Platville is Phi Sigma, but we still are pretty close associated, and do have events with one another. One of my goals is to try to get and keep in contact with a few other former Phi Sigma Epsilon fraternities that have gone local and possibly invite them down to stay over at our house sometime.

If Phi Sigma Kappa ever wanted to work with us and actually do something for the Phi Sigs in Stevens Point I might be all for going back to Kappa's, but until they prove to us that they are willing to lift a finger I'm glad to be part of Phi Sigma Chi!

Damn Proud!!

I wouldn't say it's research as much as I lived right by them when I was living in the Gamma Phi Beta house at Platteville and we had socials and whatnot with them. And, btw, it's P-L-A-T-T-E-V-I-L-L-E.

Hey, I'm from Oakland California. To me Plattville is just a small insignificant cow town. Although I do notice I did spell it correctly in the first post, I see no reason to actually go back and edit my second post thank you very much.

P-L-A-T-T-E-V-I-L-L-E.

To me you are an example of why Wisconsin needs to make it harder to get into our state schools.

What would knowing how to spell Platteville have anything to do with grades?? I had a 3.7 GPA and an 1170 on the SAT's coming out of a private California HS, and I got into every school I applied to.

So your parents have money, you did mediocre on your SAT, and you go to an easy to get into state university. I was just letting you know so you didn't make an ass of yourself since they are other Platteville people on here, but you managed to do that anyway, it seems.
