Any ΣΑΕ's here?

Good day everyone!

So I haven't been on here for a LONG time. I have been extremely busy lately. As some might know, I had a horrible summer. Two of my best-friends were killed and my other best-friend was stabbed and rapped all in the same incident. I came to school without having any friends -- everyone else either transferred or are taking a semester off.

I have always heard that fraternities are a great way to meet great people. So I checked it out and decided to join a fraternity. After much debate (with myself) I decided on ΣΑΕ. I am currently a pledge at the Wyoming Alpha chapter.

So my question: are there any ΣΑΕ's here? The deciding factor for me to join Sigma Alpha Epsilon was the True Gentleman.

Wow, sorry to hear you had such a bad summer!

I'm not a ΣΑΕ, but they had (and still do, I believe) a chapter at CU Boulder and they were ok guys and an ok house (for being members of a rival fraternity!).

Neither is OP. Sig Ep = Sigma Phi Epsilon. OP = Sigma Alpha Epsilon.

I think we had a thread a while back (like years ago?) in OMNI about what all of our Greek letter affiliations were.

And to the OP... long live Paddy Murphy!

YES!!! I have only known about Paddy Murphy for a month or so, but from what I have heard it is an interesting story. I have been told 2 versions of Paddy Murphy. Each is good. We have bi-annual parties to celebrate him, and this is the year for us! Woo-hoo! It should be fun. How do you know about Paddy Murphy?

And no, I am not a Sig Ep (but we do have a Sig Ep at UW). I am an SAE, True Gentleman, or Sig Alph.

We had both houses and both were decent enough guys.

I was an ΣΑΕ little sister over 20 years ago. It was a lot of fun! Enjoy your time, but not too much

On the U.W. campus, I recommend joining the Pikes.

No thanks. I connected more with the guys at SAE and felt more at home there. Everyone at SAE went out of their way to get to know me. Plus, the Pikes don't really have too good of a reputation now, and they proved why during Rush Week.

baglady, that's awesome! Our chapter has done away with the little sister thing. I don't know if all SAE chapters have done it or if it's just ours, but I won't get to understand why so many talked about it.

God, one of our favorite drinking songs was:

I'm sorry I pleged S A E;
they're making a queer out of me.
We're not like the others,
we sleep with our brothers!
I'm sorry I pleged S A E !!!


God, if I knew then what I know now!

I am very sorry about your summer. I heard about that incident, I had no idea it was a FT'er involved. Glad you are still here with us. :-: Best wishes to you in school and with your frat. My advice, don't turn into the typical frat boy!!!!
