Where Are All of the IT Fraternities?

SteakandcheeseUm asks: "Upon meandering around the net today, I was displeased to find that there seems to be a lack of professional academic fraternities that are dedicated to Information Technology or Computer Forensics students. Has anyone here ever come upon a group that does such a thing? Would anyone be interested in joining if one were to be founded?"

That great fraternal organization I(ota) Eta Pi? Or how about the great Tappa Tappa Kegga? Oh wait, even better, the great engineer fraternity of Nu Rho Delta (NRD)?

Re:Frats are about drinking, not IT

Gee doesn't slashdot fill that bill? Maybe there should be an international slashdot conference. All we need is a big enough hall someplace that has 20,000 pizza places, 10,000 Chinese places, 9,000 sushi places, and 45 OC-3s. Could be interesting when you show up you type in your user name and password and it prints a tag with your name color coded for your level of karma. You get a special tag if you have ever had a story accepted and a special tag if you ever complained about a story not being accepted. Of course your nick would not be on the tag to protect your privacy unless you want it. And the place would be swamped with WiFi.
The break outs could be something like this. Karma whoring 101. Anime vs Manga. Linux for the complete genius. Do tin foil hats really stop the black helicopters. How to hide what you are doing from the Government. And Atari vs Commodore. SCO against or you are stupid mindless git.
