Two Established Chapters in One City...

[g41965]

DU has active chapters at MIT, Harvard and Tufts all in the Boston area, at Penn and Swarthmore in the Philadelphia area and Chicago and Northwestern in Chicago.

ADPi has two chapters here in San Diego, at SDSU and at USD. I'm sure that there are also many more in different areas of the country....I know that my chapter and Beta Alpha (at Indiana University) sometimes would get together (some of their chapter members came to help with our recruitment and we've gone down to IU for Little 500(?)), and our chapter went over to Northwestern when they recolonized/rechartered their chapter to help with their recruitment.

The alum association in San Diego helps out both chapters equally, and many of the members of those chapters join the San Diego alum association when they graduate from their respective universities.

SDT has three chapters in NYC: Brooklyn, Queens, and Staten Island.
AEPi has two: Brooklyn and Staten Island *I believe the SI one is still a colony although I might be wrong*. My big bro.best freind was at the intitation of the founding fathers of the SI chapter....

Don't forget AEPi's chapters at Columbia (initiated Simon AND Garfunkle) and at NYU (mother chapter.)

Rusell.... I knew I forgot a few....sorry!

I also forgot a few SDT houses also. We have one at Columbia, and we have two out in Long Island that are less then an hour away

We used to have chapters at NYU, Hunter and Lehman also, all in NYC. I didn't know about the last two until I just looked them up, wow! That puts us with at one point or anthor having 5 chapters in the CUNY system...wow!

Phi Sig has a few too...

Nu Chapter (1926) U of Penn in Philadelphia, PA
Xi Chapter (1926) Temple University in Philadelphia, PA
Beta Rho Chapter (1960) Drexel Univer. in Philadelphia, PA

Kappa (1924) Geogre Washington Univer. in Washington D.C.
Beta Upsilon (1962) American Univer in Washington D.C.

there are others, and some that aren't in the same city but are in a very close radius of each other. For example our region 1 chapters are all about 30mins max. from each other.

We have one alum chapter for the Philadelphia area, they support all chapters equally.

I noticed we have two alum chapters in the D.C. area, don't know if one is for one chapter and one is for the other.

I'm stuck out here in the west coast where the closest chapter to me is two hours if you go North or West and 4 hours if you go south. So I don't really know what it is like to have multiple chapters in the same city.

Edited because I double checked it, and I got confused as well!

lol! You are correct. I was confused.

I think Paul Simon was initiated at Queens College. According to www.aepi.org, Paul Simon Queens College '63.

I am not sure if this was mentioned by any of my sisters but Alpha Phi is at :

UCLA, LOYOLA MARYMOUNT and of course the 2004 ROSE BOWL WINNING SCHOOL USC


SO were triplets in one city

This is not unique to Phi Psi, and the reason why you would want more than one chapter in a city is because there may be more than one quality institution in one city.

Precisely. I know we have twin chapters in LA (UCLA and USC) and am assuming we have a few other ones in California as well. We also had twins in Milwaukee for several years. I'm sure we have more but I just don't know of them.

I see nothing wrong with it - I'd love to see more chapters in Milwaukee, and I think Marquette (recolonization) and MSOE would be great places to have chapters, not to mention some of the quality smaller schools in the area.

Good call Heather! I forgot about Xi - I knew we had one more in Philly but I could not think of it for the life of me

We also have three chapters in Baltimore (my hometown)
Gamma Kappa - Towson University
Gamma Pi - University of Maryland Baltimore County
Zeta Chi - Villa Julie

And two in Chicago:
Zeta Tau - Loyola University, Chicago
Theta Delta - University of Illinois, Chicago

And don't forget one more in the D.C. area (although I dont know if this REALLY counts or not)
Beta Alpha - University of Maryland, College Park

[carnation]

Birmingham has several twin chapters and I think that maybe there are 3 AOII chapters there--at Samford, Birmingham Southern, and UAB.

ZTA and Chi O have chapters at both Samford and Bham Southern.

[AlphaFrog]

ASA actually has 2 chapters at the same college....Delta Nu-A and Delta Nu-B at Kettering in Flint, MI...although this was discuessed on another thread so I won't get into it....

[Colonist]

Sigma Chi has American University, GMU, Johns Hopkins, and will have another chapter at GWU assuming we do well all are in or around the DC area.

[shadokat]

No offense, but Villanova is NOT Philadelphia.

Philadelphia: UPenn and Villanova
