Yes! Many chapters also use it to serenade sororities. Its a nice song, but extremely difficult to sing, especially a cappella.
ETA: I have a terrible singing voice as it is, so I feel bad for potential future wife...and all those people in Denny's this one time.

Not gonna lie - kinda gave me goosebumps. It would lend itself well to a barbershop quartet.

O.K., I'm hijacking like no other right now, but my all time favorite Delta Chi song is called Delta Chi Dad and it is sung by a very barbershop-esque quartet.

Kappa Sigma has the following:
President: Worthy Grand Master
Vice-President: Worthy Grand Procurator
2nd Vice President: Worthy Grand Master of Ceremonies
Secretary: Worthy Grand Scribe
Treasurer: Worthy Grand Treasurer
They correspond to the names of chapter officers, except they have the name "worthy" in front.

That is kick ass!! I love such traditions.
I love barbershop-esque quartets and the words are great.

In Kappa:
(Vice) President=>(Vice) Polemarch
Secretary=====> Keeper of Records
Treasurer=====> Keeper of Exchequer
(Asst.) Sgt @ Arms=>(Lt.) Strategus
5 member Board of Directors (no special title)
Historian/Reporter (no special title)
Regional titles are prefaced with Province [Title], international titles are prefaced with Grand [Title]. On these two levels, two additional officers are added, the Junior (Grand/Province) Polemarch, who is an undergradute brother, and an additional board of directors position. The two Strategus positions are also exclusively for undergraduates, as is three of the six board of directors positions, with the other three for alumni. The Keeper of Records and Exchequer positions are consolidated into one position on the Grand level, and a Grand Chapter Nominating Committee Chairman is included on the Grand level. So our regional and international leadership has at least a 40% makeup of undergraduate brothers at any given time, which I find really cool.

I love that! And I'd love even more to see a chapter attempt to sing it

Yeah I'm assuming it is just the Greek word for Secretary. And I know Archon is used by a few fraternities as well.

I was going to say that TKE uses some pretty interesting titles, but I don't know if they are ritual. So I'll just leave it at that.
