I could be wrong, though.

ya as far as I know TKE is the biggest by number of chapters and Sig EP is largest by total number of undergraduate brothers. So I wasn't sure about that either unless they announce some sort of big news at the Leadership Conference.

That's what I thought - Pike and SAE are up there as well, but I figured TKE and Sig EP were probably the top 2. I checked the website, and there haven't been any updates or releases. We're still referred to as "one" of North America's largest fraternities.

Hiya. Got some good ideas from this board and thought I would post up.
Daniel
Nu-Lambda Chapter
Initiated Fall 2005
Current Social Chair
People said they want to know what is going on so here goes. Our chapter went through some issues recently. We ended up expelling or suspending about 40 people, for reasons I still don't really understand. To be honest, I was sort of duped because as we were pledging while all of this was going down. Anyway, most of my closest friends were those suspended or kicked out. I still had a blast this past year, best of my life in fact. Learned a lot about myself. I almost resigned along with a lot of my friends, but then I thought "why not give back to an organization that gave me so much?". So I took on the responsibilities of Social Chair. It is rough because of all the things we went through, the new restrictions put on us by HQ, and our chapters rigid adherence to it don't really facilitate a good social scene. We can't throw our 10:01 or our annual Halloween Havoc. So that is the standing of our chapter at the moment!
On a different, and brighter, note, I am planning our mixers for this year. I have a ton of ideas for themes, but activities are rough. Our leadership won't allow drinking at mixers, so I am trying to make other things to do. Currently, I am thinking we will do a Medieval Madness theme for one, and New Years in November for another, with a Crush party thrown in (actually this is normally done by sororities, but it sounded pretty fun). This is really important to have awesome mixers because trying to rebuild a rep is not easy. Do you guys have any ideas as far as non-alcoholic activities that can be done? For the medieval one, I am thinking we would elect a royal family a la high school prom, king, queen, prince, princess, bishop, and fool or something. They would then run the mixer, with a nice lil surprise thrown in for them at the end . I am sure I can come up with stuff to do, but if anyone has any ideas feel free to share em!

Wow - that is quite a lot to be thrown at a new brother. I can't imagine going through something like that, especially as a new member of the chapter. Good luck with the upcoming school year; it sounds like you're still excited about thing, so hopefully that continues.
Welcome to the board.

Greetings gentelmen!
My name is Jason. I, and about 45 others are currently working on bringing Kappa Theta colony back to Indiana Univ. of PA... We're hoping to have everything in to nationals by the end of the semester so that we might be able to become a chapter & brothers around Valentines day. So those of you in the Pitt area - be expecting a few new brothers in your neck of the woods!

I would like to tell you all that I am now damn proud to be a Kappa Sigma, and look forward to meeting as many of you as possible and advancing the status of my chapter, Omicron-Kappa. My info:
