Well, not really fair. Okay, the OU Chapter had some RM issues where a kid died from alcohol consumption and aside from that, the general public doesn't really take notice of greek life.

I'm editing out my original response to Kevin, because I thought this was going to be a fun poll where we honored fraternities other than our own. Not a poll where we take pot shots at other fraternities.

With apologies where appropriate. Its Friday afternoon and I am wrung out and arguably non compos mentis.

1. Which fraternity has the most elegant Badge (basic model)?
Badges? We don't need no stinkin badges!

2. Which fraternity has the best flower?
Flower? What the hell kind of outfit has a damned flower!

3. Which fraternity has the best philanthropy?
As in giving? Naw, rip off everything that isn't nailed down and then come back and pry that stuff loose.

4. Which fraternity has the best color combination ( or can be just one, if that's the only one for them )?
Red, the color of our well hazed pledges' blood.

5. Which fraternity has the best coat-of-arms/crest?
None, they are all made up and none are sanctioned by any competent heraldic court or authority.

6. Which fraternity has the most mysterious symbols?
Probably Skull and Bones, unless you want to count the Corps Saxo-Bourussia of Heidelberg which has a real coat of arms and very secret symbols.

7. Which fraternity do you think is the best known?
Delta Tau Chi at Faber University.

8. Which other fraternity did you consider, other than your own, ( that was on campus when you rushed)?
Look at? Several. Consider? None other than my own.

9. Which fraternity has the best yearly activity?
See #7 above - Toga, toga, toga!

10. Which fraternity has the best new member pin?
What is a new member pin? You must mean best pledge pin. For that see #7 again.

11. Name one well known fraternity man in the public eye ( can be from any field, i.e. entertainment, sports, music etc. ). Also state which fraternity he is a brother of.
President George Bush, DKE

12. Name a fraternity that was NOT on your campus when you rushed that you would consider joining today, based on what you know about them from internet research.
No contest, there is only one - mine. Actually, based on what I know today I would still have to give the same answer.

University? When did Faber College become Faber University? I swear, every college thinks it has to become a university these days.


As for best known fraternities and Sigma Chi, I may be showing my age, but surely this has to count for something.

I think that qualifies for an 'aw s**t' on my part. Hell of a note when a lawyer's attention to detail goes haywire. Thanks for the proof reading.
