Michigan Greek Mythology: Chi Psi?

They say sometimes at night you can still hear them, "Chug! Chug! Chug!"

Chi Psi (not to be confused with Chi Phi or Phi Psi) is a bit of a mystery to me. I know that it exists as a technically active fraternity on campus, it has a well-maintained house on State St. and even has its own Facebook group. The mystery? Not only in three years at U of M have I never once met anyone in Chi Psi, but I also have never seen anyone exit or enter their house.

I'm tempted to break inside where I'm almost positive I would find the scene I've constructed above. Either Chi Psi is a fraternity operated solely by the ghosts of brothers past or it's just an elaborate ploy by members to be able to put "active participant in Greek Life" on their resume without ever actually having to do anything. At the moment I'm leaning towards ghosts, so I'm gonna fire up the Mystery Machine, round up the Harlem Globetrotters and investigate.

I know a lot of the Chi Psi brothers and they are all pretty cool guys. They tend to be low key and chill, a little awkward at times, but all in all great guys. Posted 10/21/2007 11:39 PMReply

Just because they don't wake you up at 7 in the morning on game days and don't act like complete douchebags in general shouldn't give them a bad/no rep. Posted 10/29/2007 3:05 PMReply

The stains Beta left in the carpets of 604 S. State St. rage harder than sigep, Shady phi, and chipsy combined. Rush the Graduate House. Posted 11/01/2007 12:43 PMReply

Phi Psi a real fraternity? Last time I checked, flatbrimming your hats and wearing sagging jorts doesn't characterize a real fraternity at all...in fact, that's anti-fratty. They actually frown on preppy clothing (have heard of Phi Psi's ridiculing preppily-clad brothers from other houses). Posted 11/05/2007 6:18 PMReply

Yes Chi Psi is a real fraternity, in fact I am a current Brother. I would suggest you do a little research before you blog about something totally false. Walk by on Football Saturdays, we have everything out front, on weekends we keep it low key with mixers. We will take the time to get to know you if you take the time to stop by.
