Question Sororities/Fraternities represented positively in books, mags, songs, TV, etc.

Hello! Do you know of any sororities/fraternities which are represented positively in entertainment/everyday things? For example, yesterday I was reading A Streetcar Named Desire (which is an AWESOME tragic play...I love it so much that I put some of the quotes in my sig!) for English class. One of the female characters, Blanche, mentions that in college she wore Shep Huntleigh's (an old lover) ATO pin in her senior year. So I guess the author, Tennessee Williams, was an Alpha Tau Omega??

So...has your sorority/fraternity been mentioned before? I know that Kappa is represented by the Campbell's soup can (fleur-de-lis (sp?)), and that Pi Phi is represented by Wrigley's gum!! I have also heard some rumor about a sorority being represented on the moon???!!! Something like Neil Armstrong's wife was a XYZ (forgot which sorority), and that he left a symbol of XYZ on the moon!
