Actually it is an NIC group but I don't understand how they swing the co-ed thing either.

While in Chapel Hill for a wedding yesterday, I was reminded that there is at least one other co-ed NIC fraternity: Delta Psi (commonly known as St. Anthony Hall), founded in 1847 at Columbia. It has been co-ed since 1969. It is small -- only 10 chapters, and though it is an NIC member, I think it calls itself a literary society these days. It has quite a pedigree, though. References to it appear in F. Scott Fitzgerald's works.

Haha wow. A tude.
That's something I would've said. Plus, if it's co-ed and non-NPC, it's probably more like 98%.
Along with what she said, your more likely to need to rush as a freshman in the fall semester (Unless they only allow spring rush), than as sophmore in terms of competitiveness.
Oh and...

- If/when you rush, bid, pledge et cetera be sure to keep non-greek and other greek friends. Don't let the house you're joining consume your life. There may be a time later you will want to get away from fraternity drama

No. You won't have any time for GDI friends depending on where you rush because you'll be too busy conducting important greek stuff and they'll be too busy playing Playstation or World of Warcraft or whatever it is they do in their free time.
Now that I'm all graduated I can say these things.

Like 33girl said, Psi Upsilon is an NIC/IFC fraternity -- the fifth oldest fraternity in the country, actually. It's one the Union Triad, founded in 1833.
