When I attended Pitt in the mid 70's, Delta Zeta was the only national sorority that had a chapter at both Pitt and UPJ. Due to Panhellenic rules regarding quota and total, we were not permitted to add their actives to our chapter or else we would have had to take less pledges, since our chapter was already at total (which back then = 50 + seniors). As a result, we tried to include their 5-6 sisters who were transfers in some of our events, but they were unable to affiliate as active members.
There was a fraternity at the time that was almost all UPJ transfers called Delta Sigma Chi. They were a local, but were one of the largest and most popular fraternities on campus. Their house was located on Forbes Avenue and was actually on the Carnegie Mellon campus. I was sad to hear that their chapter folded sometime in the 80's. They would have made a great group for a national fraternity to colonize, but I believe some of the members thought that they could maintain without doing that. I guess it didn't work.
