4/9     Do greek letters in HKN, UPE, and Lambda Lambda Lambda mean anything?
                                          \_ Isn't this the geek fraternity
                                          in "Revenge of the Nerds"?
        \_ Based on my trip to Greece last month... No. They're just Greek
           alphabets.
           \_ How many alphabets do the Greeks have?
              \_ 24
                 \_ Really?  Do each of the 24 have 24 letters too?
                    \_ yes.  now sit down and eat your troll-cookie.
        \_ In fraternities/sororities in general: Yes, i.e. Kappa Kappa
           Gamma == Keys to the Kingdom of God. I'd bet HKN/TBP are the
           same way, but I sure can't remember.
             -- former frat guy / TBP guy / HKN guy
        \_ Same with TBP. The Best Pussy
           Anyone know it for HKN?
           \_ Hello Kitty Nookie
        \_ Real answer: the original greek form of electron is spelled
           eta-lambda-epsilon-kappa-tau-rho-omicron-nu
           "Eta Kappa Nu" are the first, middle(sorta), and last letters.
           (HKN was originally an EE society only).
        \_ the answer is: http://www.sportbikes.dhs.org/Pictures/AngTub.jpg
        \_ each letter was supposed to stand for some sort of good quality
           that's why the frats used them to name themselves.
