Michigan Greek Mythology: Phi Psi

Michigan Greek Mythology: Phi Psi
The final initiation rite.

I didn't really know much about Phi Psi during my freshman year. Busy dodging bids from Pike and ATO, the only real interactions I had with them involved grabbing a beer on my way to the stadium during pregame, all the while avoiding the shirtless males that danced on picnic tables around me. Freshman year came and went, and suddenly I began hearing about them as a reputable frat. I started actually attending parties there and was able to make better judgements about the house and its inhabitants.

The guys there enjoy wearing sunglasses indoors, lifting weights, reminiscing about their old LAX days, sporting plaid shorts and owning every color of polo shirt imaginable (Ralph Lauren of course, as Lacoste is far too east coast). They are less gay than Pike, but that's like saying ice dancing is less gay than synchronized swimming, so it's not really something to brag about. Throw in a little Theta Chi cocky and SAE meathead, and you've got a Phi Psi cocktail.

Their actual house has to be one of the most broke down places on campus. You name it, it's demolished. The windows, the fence, the chairs, the tables, the grills, hell, even the beer pong balls are smashed in. However, this makes it a fun place to party since you feel like you can do whatever you want without repercussions. Done with your beer? Throw it out the window! Lose a game of Beruit? Break the table in half! It's Phi Psi!

Knew I was right when I pegged you as a frat boy.

Re: demolition @ Phi Psi. Are the girls who go to these parties busted too?

Johnny, I can't help but notice you have a distinct fascination with the Greek system. Let me first start by saying that I am the only Phi Psi, to my knowledge, to deactivate. I was a Fall '04 pledge, and quickly grew bored of the incredible lack of intellect in my pledge class, save for a few juniors or seniors, who maybe dropped by the house two or three times a semesters. The prospect of living was absolutely untenable; I'm surprised the house has yet to be condemned.

Anyways, the continued review of various Greek houses is somewhat amusing in the context that it is fun to juxtapose a 3rd person interpretation with your own personal experience. But there has to be something better to report on at Michigan than how Jewy Theta Chi might be...right?

For the sake of any freshman that might be reading this; don't waste your parents money by buying into the glorification of the Greek system. Make friends that you would want to associate with without having to have a BAC that would inhibit you from operating a car.

"something better to report on at Michigan"??? This isn't the Ann Arbor Post Gazette, maybe you should stick with being a douche, you're pretty good at that (see pic below). JQ, keep the hits coming I need something to entertain me while working 9 to 5.

Also, I assume the douche factor has to do a lot with the amount of lacrosse loving (the term LAX makes me cringe), polo wearing, douchebaggery that takes place, so for the record phi psi didn't use to have anyone like that and I'd just like to officially stand up for the reputation of the older guys in the house.

If that is what as passing as "****ing intelligent men" at Phi Psi, then they may want to stop drinking Windex and start hitting the books more. Posted 09/10/2008 11:18 PMReply

**** psi is a bunch of softy d bags that wear polos and red shorts to bed. These kids probably spend hours in the morning deciding what homo clothing piece they should wear. I have never seen so many metros crowded in one setting. I hope the new rush class grows some balls and isn't as girly as the rest of them. I honestly think phi psi should be ranked in the top 10 sororities. Posted 09/22/2008 11:36 AMReply
