I don't know about that, but Tootie on "The Facts of Life" pledged "Gamma Gamma Mu." She didn't initiate, though

I imagine there are a lot more sitcoms with made-up orgs than real orgs represented.

That storyline in The Facts of Life is where I first became interested in sororities!

Bubba on Mama’ Family joined a fraternity at his junior college and went away on a “Hell’s Weekend” retreat. I remember distinctly he was talking about getting hazed and I asked my mom why someone would put themselves through all that lol.

The fraternity was called Sigma Alpha Pi, and he had a shirt that said (erroneously but funnily) SAP. He was proud to be a SAP, lol.

There was an episode I remember seeing in The Danny Thomas Show re-runs where his daughter, Terry, and her friend want to pledge the elite/exclusive High School Sorority, Psi Psi Psi, but she is afraid her father's show business work is too low class for the daughters of surgeons, attorneys, etc. Uncle Toulouse made an appearance.
