greeks in the family

[Siobhan]

My immediate family are all from the UBC Greek system...

Me: DPhiE
Brother: Sigma Chi
Cousin: Beta Theta Pi
Cousin's wife: Kappa Kappa Gamma

I also have family in the states who are in fratenities and sororities but I'm not sure which orgs they belong to.

My grandfather is in a local.
My mom is a Sigma Kappa (but put Phi Mu as number 2 on her bid card!)
I'm a Phi Mu!
My little brother is going to UVM in the fall but there are no fraternities there.

My cousin went DPhiE in Georgia and I went Beta Sigma Phi.

[XO_Princess]

I was the first to go Greek in the family, but I started a trend!

Cousin: SAE
Cousin: KKG

We're the only greeks in the fam, but through Mr. XOprincess' fam, we have:

Mr. XO_Princess: Sigma Nu
Mr. XO_Princesses mom: Alpha Xi Delta
Mr. XO_Princesses brother: Pike
Mr. XO_Princesses sis in law: ADPi

I am and will be the one and only Greek in my family!

My younger sibling was not a Greek, and his son never went Greek! It is so sad that I am the only one!

But my whole Chapter is my family and sometimes I treat them as my Sons, even though they are my Brothers!

Great event took place, we initiated Brother # 599 the Father of # 507 as our advisor! Guess that is A Legacy in Reverse!

He is a great asset to My Chapter!

Grandmother: AXO
GreatGrandmother: AXO
Grandfather: Sigma Chi
Aunt: was a little sister at Delta Chi

thas it.

I was the first in my immediate family to join a sorority. BUT my mom was initiated into Alpha Gamma Delta in 1999 as an Alumna Initiate! It is so great to share Alpha Gamma Delta with her.

I am first generation...will work on the rest of the fam!

In my family it's:
My dad: Alpha Epsilon Pi
Uncle: AEPi
Aunt: Alpha Chi Omega
Me: Alpha Gamma Delta
Cousin: Phi Mu
Cousin: Kappa Alpha Theta
Cousin: Triangle
It was actually my dad who encouraged me to go through rush not any of my female family members.

me : chi omega
dad : sigma alpha mu
uncle : alpha epsilon pi
cousin: sigma phi epsilon

[dzsaigirl]

Me: Delta Zeta
Granmother: Chi Omega
Grandfather: Kappa Sigma
Aunt: Delta Delta Delta
Aunt: Kappa Alpha Theta (pretty sure, or else she was also DDD)
Fiance: Delta Upsilon
Fiance's step-mom: Kappa Alpha Theta

Question: Since my fiance's stepmom is a Theta, would that make my future daughters Theta legacies and DZ legacies? I am not sure how the step thing works...

[SigKapQueen]

ok i've been reading some of these post and some (not all) , but some have indicated that their family members "was" or "were" part of a sorority or fraternity. greek life is forever, even after you become alum. so try to put it like " they BECAME a member of suchandsuch fraternity/sorority. as for me i am the only one in my immediate family who is greek.(sigma kappa). my cousin from tenn. became a member of ZTA. which was one of the reasons i went greek too.

[aephi alum]

dzsaigirl - it depends on Theta's legacy policy. Some GLO's consider step-relations, half-sister relations, and adoptive relations on the same level as blood relations; some don't.

SigKapQueen - I agree that GLO membership is for life, however, the past tense is appropriate if the person in question is deceased.

[dzsaigirl]

Well, in my case, I put WAS for a family member who has indicated that they do not want to be a part of that organization anymore for whatever reason...

My husband and I are the only greeks in both sides of our family.

me: Alpha Gamma Delta
husband: Sigma Phi Epsilon
