TKE at U of Alabama?

CrusaderTKE · #1 12-05-2006, 02:03 AM

I dont get this whole old south fraternity life that everyone is talking about each TKE chapter is different and if they are at UA wouldnt that be all southern men anyways. I am from the north but all the TKE chapters down south are doing a lot better than the chapters in the north. All the old south Frats like SAE really dont do well anywhere

I have no idea what you're talking about. TKE can do whatever they want. All we're saying is that they'll probably have a rough go of it.

Please tell me you only respond by posting pictures of cakes. Seriously, that would make you the best thing about this website, by far.

You don't know about Sheetcake? Terrible...go look at his posting history. Sheer brilliance. Or should that be sheet brilliance?

My daughter is a new Delta Zeta at the University of Alabama. Based on conversations with her, I believe an unofficial heirarchy or at least the appearance of one exists among Alabama sororities. The differences seem to be slight, though admittedly distinct. Nor are the distinctions necessarily bad. It appears that each sorority has its own unique reputation or character. Some may be a little more popular than the other, depending upon one's perspective. I think DZ was once Old Row, but no longer. I believe they have an excellent reputation at Bama despite the noted absence of Old Row designation. Surely every sorority and fraternity hold different reputations from campus to campus. You can't go wrong if you are Greek. period.

Just a few words from a DZ Dad who respect all fraternities and sororities...

Ouch. I don't even want to think what a TKE northern chapter is like.

We're simply stating it's going to be tough. The combination of TKE's reputation in the south and Alabama's old row will hurt TKE's chances of becoming an established fraternity.

New Row.....but still a good house as far as I know. Have huge numbers though from what I understand. Have good parties and are popular with the good sororities.

I can't speak for the rest of the fraternities at Bama but I'd say our Alpha Phi (Bama) chapter is one of the top two or three chapters in Theta Chi. They've been doing very well and have won something like 6 Alter Awards in a row.
