Francine Neff, first woman treasurer of the USA, was an ADPi (they gave everyone who attended a convention a dollar bill with her signature). There's more, but I can't access the list from work .
I heard that Steve Martin was a Delt, and that JFK was a Phi Kappa Theta.

While it's possible, he's not listed on our webpage, and it's the first time I've heard of it.
I guess for comic relief, we'll stick with Drew Carey and David Schwimmer among others.

David Schwimmer from Friends, Matthew McCongnehey (sp?), Drew Carey and Will Ferrell from SNL are Delts.
You can see the whole list at www.delts.org.

I have had the pleasure of meeting and partying with Drew Carey. He is an alum of the Delta Omega chapter of Delta Tau Delta at Kent State, and during my collegiate years and shortly thereafter he used to come to KSU's Homecoming.....he was very funny and down-to-earth.

I didn't have the patience to read the whole thread, but Chi Omegas I can vouch for are Lucy Liu, Sela Ward, Mary Ann Mobley (former Miss America, actress, she's on Game Show Network a lot!!!!!!!!) Joanne Woodward (actress, married to Paul Newman), Joyce DeWitt (yes, Janet from 3s Company!!!!)
I have a hard time believing there are not others, particularly with as large a national as we are.

That's hilarious -- I've heard the Carly Simon rumor, too! We had some Thetas call and yell at us after we listed Rue McL....han (can't spell) as an alum in our NPC view book. Our mistake, BUT Blanch (the character) was an Alpha Gam on the show.

So, I tried to sort through all of these posts, but I gave up, so hopefully I'm not repeating...
... Our sorority has done a lot of research on Sigma Chi famous alums for Derby Days before (well, not a lot, but anyway...), so here are the ones I can remember:
David Letterman
Carson Daly
Burt Reynolds
