It seems like a lot of Sigma Nu chapters have that "Southern" reputation on campuses. Not as often as KA does, but for the most part.

Kevin, whats up with the UCO site? I go to it and get the following:
This Account Has Been SuspendedPlease contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.

You think they need some $$$ to pay for their server space?! NOt a good time for your website to be down.

Of the chapters on my campus we are probably the most gentlemanly chapter, and we seem to have a little southern attitude. It is strange at times but hey what are you gonna do? The southern attitude not the gentlemanly.

No clue. I did notice that though. Hopefully that'll be cleared up soon.

Yeah I don't know how the gentlemanly thing is correlated to the Southern thing. I'm in Northern California so nobody is really "Southern". The girls here have told me a million times they feel safe coming to Sigma Nu when they are having a problem or feel creeped out at another party. We've had girls come to our house upset after another fraternity's member would force himself on her and our execs marched over to their house to demand an explanation.....

as far as all the frills and nicities go I'd give it to Sigma Chi who always get up when a "lady" enters a room....

on my campus Sigma Nu are kind of the blue collar guys....we're not schlubs we're just not fancy....but we still have class.

Yeah.. we have/had very well defined dress codes for meetings -- "Class A Attire" which was basically suits and ties, socks and polished shoes required. There was also "Class B" attire for some meetings which was generally a pair of khakis, some closed-toe non-sneakers and polos. Class A was typically what meetings would consist of. Class B would be generally for meetings which were more informal, or where we had a lot to do afterwards.

I'm not sure the "rebel" thing is a really good excuse. It's not like Oklahoma is a place dripping in formalism

Well we have proper dress attire for Chapter Meetings...but as formal as yours...we have a business casual policy: button down shirt, khakis or slacks, brown or black shoes, tie, and badge.

I've also found that making meeting attendance optional gets rid of the guys who fool around all meeting with their side conversations. When I was Recorder my policy is: You don't have to be here but don't whine when we do something you don't like. If you ARE here you better have a pen, paper, and not have any side conversations.

Totally gave off a feeling of serious business.
