I know this is from '03, but Elvis Presley is an alumni/honor initiate of Tau Kappa Epsilon. He was inducted by the chapter at Arkansas State University.

Paul Simon and Art Garfunkle are either Alpha Epsilon Pis or Zeta Beta Taus. I don't know if they were collegiate or alumni initiates.

As for current urban legends of Sigma Chi: Eddie Murphy and Daniel Tosh ARE NOT Sigs.

Eddie Murphy? Seriously? A very young person who didn't see 18 year old Eddie on SNL must have started that one.

S & G are AEPi. Everything that comes up indicates they were members in college.

You realize that would have been '79/'80 right? Thirty year olds weren't alive then, and forty year olds would be forgiven for not watching SNL ages 10-15 or so.

(There are reruns, but just making the point that it's not a 'very young' thing.)

Eddie Murphy started on the show in 1980. Every now 40-then 15 year old knew about him, trust me. If you didn't, you were kind of screwed socially...SNL was a HUGE deal (even after the original cast left).

and 30 year olds are very young. Just enjoy it.

Ah, I'm not 30, and it really isn't a compliment/insult thing. Just pointing out the illogic.
