The actor, a 1975 graduate, said he couldn't afford full fraternity membership.
"I ran out of money," Goodman said.
Goodman, who plays the husband on the ABC sitcom "Roseanne," will be initiated Saturday in a private ceremony, fraternity President Tim Mueller said.
Goodman said he pledged Sigma Phi Epsilon as a student because "they're a great bunch of guys. A lot of guys from my high school are brothers."
Whether there will be another "Star Trek" sequel is a mystery of the show biz universe to actor Patrick Doohan, who played chief engineer Montgomery Scott, as in: "Beam me up, Scotty."
"It's very difficult to understand what Paramount is doing," Doohan, 72, said Tuesday at the University of Central Arkansas.
In any event, Doohan said the last sequel, "Star Trek VI" is the best of the lot.
"Everybody loved it," he said.
Prince, the songwriter and performer, will compose the score for a Joffrey Ballet, "Billboards," which is to have its world premiere in January. The four-part ballet will be choreographed by Laura Dean, Charles Moulton, Peter Pucci and Margo Sappington.
Prince offered to create a work for the Joffrey - his first ballet score - after he saw the company perform in 1991. Some of the music will be based on "Thunder," a song from his latest album, "Diamonds and Pearls."
***CORRECTION***
Published correction ran on March 7, 1992.
Because of a syndicated news service error, a People Column item in Friday's paper misidentified actor James Doohan, who played Montgomery Scott in the "Star Trek" series and movies.
