Michigan Tech. is a great engineering school...glad to see that the Triangle chapter is recolonizing there! I'm sure the re-installing MTU alums/officers are thrilled!
We partnered with Triangle for homecoming my sophomore year at Michigan, and we had the BEST float ever...those guys came up with cool mechanical moving parts, etc. It was great!

> Michigan Tech. is a great engineering school
Here's a great Greek Map they have done. I like how they have pictures of all the houses.

Alumni support and oversight is tough when most of your alums live at least four hours away. I went to RPI, which is in the same situation. We've talked about a "Fellowship of Remote Chapters" - an informal alumni intergreek group that helps each other's chapters and works on mentoring all greeks when in the area.

If I remember correctly, before Theta Tau went co-ed (sometime in the late 1970s), they had been a member of the NIC.
I am not sure of the time line, but I recall Theta Tau being listed as a member of the NIC on - I think - an on-line copy of a "Baird's Manual". However, it could have been some other list.
Again, not sure of the dates, but I want to say they joined the NIC in the 1910s maybe, and withdrew in the 1950s or 1960s - or possibly before then. Again, the timeline is fuzzy, but I do remember wondering why Theta Tau withdrew when they did - especially since it seemed well before they voted to go co-ed.

Ditto Triangle Mtech congratulations! My brother-in-law enjoys attending the yearly Houghton Winter Fest; I'll let him know to look for an additional group's sculpture in 2013.

Congratulations to Western Kentucky University! They were just approved as a SID Chapter! We can't wait to announce your chartering date!
[A SID chapter is a "Sorority in Development" - much like a colony]

Very interesting. There are currently only 3 chapters in Florida, the largest being at FAU, within a 5 mile radius.

Is this ground-up, or absorbing a local?
