Understandable, but fwiw, "oopsilon" is much closer to the Greek than "yupesilon." In modern Greek, it's actually more like "eepsilon"; in classical Greek the "u" is pronounced more like a French "u" or a German "ü." There never would have been a "y" at the beginning.
Seriously, though, I'm all for pronouncing an GLO's name the way that GLO prefers that it be pronounced, so I will say a sincere thanks for this chance to know what members of Delta Upsilon prefer.
