Like Kappa Alpha (Society or Order) and Kappa Alpha Theta? Or Kappa Alpha Psi? Or Alpha Kappa Alpha? Or Pi Kappa Alpha?
Sigma Phi and Sigma Phi Epsilon?
Delta Phi and Delta Phi Epsilon? Or Alpha Delta Phi?
Kappa Sigma and Phi Kappa Sigma?
Sigma Kappa and Phi Sigma Kappa?
Phi Mu, Phi Mu Delta and Phi Mu Alpha?
There are lots of these coincidences. I wouldn't read too much into them. |
Sigma Phi was actually SigEp's original name but the founders realized Sigma Phi was an established fraternity already and slapped Epsilon on at the last minute. If you look at our original founder's badge, it has Sigma and Phi in the heart and Epsilon stamped on the very bottom at the point.
I also find it funny that Sigma Chi was once Sigma Phi as well! Popular letters, eh? :P
