Oh, yes, there are big differences.

In a way, I'm happy to hear that this is a myth -- on the other hand, it sure messes up a great story!

Question Sig Ep and Dr Seuss

http://www.anapsid.org/aboutmk/seuss.html

I know I've always heard that Dr Seuss is a Sig Ep but I ran across this site that states:
Quote:
Despite the fact that he had made no overtures to any of the fraternities, Ted was nonetheless surprised to not be invited by any of them to pledge.
Then I went to Sig Ep National's and there's no listing of famous alumni. But the Dartmouth chapter does list him as a famous alumni. (Seuss graduated from Dartmouth in 1925.) So does anyone know if he actually pledged as an undergrad or was possibly an honorary intiate later in life? I know that Sigma Kappa National has not been able to cofirm either of his wives were members but the rumors persist. Is it the same for him and Sig Ep?


BTW You've got to check out the Dartmouth page. Gotta love a fraternity that has no less than FOUR different animals on it's composite, two brothers in hats, two who didn't feel the need to wear a collared shirt for the picture, one in sunglasses (who is also one with a hat and w/o a collared shirt) and a brother who apparently felt the need to send a self portrait instead!

I LOVE IT! I wish we could do fun composites instead of the drape - our SigEp chapter was insanely psycho about their composites - black jacket, white shirt, and they all wore the same red tie to make sure it matched.

And back on the Dr. Seuss train...the composite distracted me...I am about 99% positive he was a brother because I remember reading about him in the Lifetime Responsibility of Brotherhood (LROB) which is the SigEp "book."

SigEp Famous Alumni (from their National site)

He's there, about 10 people down.

They hide stuff on their page - I only remember seeing it before because I was looking up somebody else that I didn't believe was one of their alums.
