I'm currently a Sigma Nu at Duquesne University. I'm surprised that nobody mentioned us at all in this thread. I read through the who thing hoping to find some history on my chapter, but no luck.
Just an update on where we are now. We were kicked off campus in 2007 for a hazing incident. National got an anonymous complaint about the paddling that went on back in those days. From what I'm told, the university did everything they could to keep us on campus, but Headquarters decided to make an example of us. We were recolonized in Dec. 2009 by a few of the pledges that were hazed in '07 but remained stagnant for a year. My pledge class(SPC10) turned everything around and we pretty much rebuilt from scratch. Now we're one of the top groups on campus in almost every area of student life, consistently winning or placing 2 in Carnival and Greek Week, Making 5 star, and running everything from IFC to Orientation.
The Current Chapters are:
Fraternity: Sigma Nu, Phi Kappa Theta, Delta Chi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Alpha Tau Omega, Tau Kappa Epsilon, Gamma Phi(Local), Iota Phi Theta, Sigma Tau Gamma, Alpha Phi Delta, Alpha Delta, and Alpha Epsilon Pi just colonized.
Sorority: Zeta Tau Alpha, Delta Zeta, Alpha Gamma Delta, Sigma Kappa, Gamma Phi Beta, Alpha Sigma Tau, and Alpha Phi
Interestingly, a couple years ago a servive fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega(Which several of were probably a members of), broke off with two other chapters and formed the Alpha Delta national social fraternity. Gamma Phi was huge my freshman year but they're about to die off if they don't make some major changes real soon.
I've been a major player in all corners of Campus Life and especially Greek Life since I came to Duquesne. If you want to know anything about how the school as it is now, I'm more than happy to answer questions or participate in conversation. I see most things that happen behind the scenes and can probably tell you more than most people.
On the other side, a lot of our local history was lost when we recolonized so if you know anything worth mentioning about the old SigNu, I would really appreciate it.
Peace out,
SigNu-KD
