And I'm with Nittany, I'm interested but I don't think I'll be able to contribue much here. I'll definitely keep checking in though!

FYI, Chi Omega names their chapters "backwards" so it's really like the Lambda Upsilon chapter for other orgs. Still, Chi Omega has a lot of chapters!

It's not going to all work out perfect, due to variances in chapter designations...but just use your best judgement. I'm sure someone will correct you if your totally wrong.:p;)

Or list all Pi Phi's State Betas since for some groups its chapters are not named alphabetically in order of charter year. For example, AOII's second chapter was Pi at Tulane in New Orleans. Our third was Nu Chapter at NYU followed by Omicron at University of Tennessee. I know Kappa Delta has a similar issue with non-alphabetical order.

I can help by giving all the AOII chapters in order of charter if anyone needs it. PM me if you can't find a chapter for us. Hint...we have no Mu chapter.

Beta Chapters

Alpha Chi Omega - Albion
Alpha Delta Pi - Winstong Salem 1905-1910
Alpha Epsilon Phi - Hunter 1909-1970
Alpha Gamma Delta - Wisconsin
Alpha Omicron Pi - Brown 1908-1908 (the potentially 9th chapter)
Alpha Phi - Northwestern
Alpha Sigma Alpha - Lewisburg (WVA) 1903-1904
Alpha Sigma Tau - Central Michigan
Alpha Xi Delta - Iowa Wesleyan
Chi Omega - Colby (19th? chapter)
Delta Delta Delta - St Lawrence (6th chapter)
Delta Gamma - Washington (27th chapter)
Delta Phi Epsilon - Teachers Colege NYC (1917-1922)
Delta Zeta - Cornell (1908-1932)
Gamma Phi Beta - Michigan
Kappa Alpha Theta - Indiana
Kappa Delta - Chatham Episcopal Institute (1902-1904)
Kappa Kappa Gamma - St. Mary's School (1871-1974)
Phi Mu - Hollins (1904-1929)
Phi Sigma Sigma - Tufts (1918-1922)
Pi Beta Phi - 2nd chapter is Iowa Alpha, Iowa Wesleyan
Sigma Delta Tau - Pennsylvania
Sigma Kappa - a second chapter was founded alongside Alpha at Colby in 1890 or 1891, later merged with Alpha
Sigma Sigma Sigma - Lewisburg Female (1903-1908)
Theta Phi Alpha - Illinois (1919-1953)
Zeta Tau Alpha - Richmond Women's (1902-1903)

ETA - if someone 'called' Beta and I didn't notice, my apologies. :)

One fact that I always found interesting about Zeta Tau Alpha is that we officially have two Beta chapters. Richmond Women's College was our first Beta chapter, now called Beta (old). This chapter was actually opperated sub-rosa and unfortunately didn't stay active very long. Our second Beta chapter, now called Beta (new), was opened at Judson College in Marion, Alabama, on March 16, 1905. Unfortunately, this chapter was only active for fourteen years. "Thus both of Zeta's Beta chapters - the short-lived Original Beta and the Judson grouop, upon whom was bestowed the designation of the extinct first Beta chapter - suffered extinction because of administrative disapproval of fraternities." (taken from The History of Zeta Tau Alpha)

This thread is great! I probably won't be able to contribute much, but I'm still interested.

PS, Theta Phi's website has a list of all open & closed chapters, in the order in which they were founded, with the year & Greek letter designation if anyone is trying to tackle a letter without Baird's. I noticed a couple innaccuracies as far as chapter's that were closed within the last ten years or so, but I'll just try to point those out if we get that far into the alphabet.

I haven't heard of any plans to recolonize Gamma but this was one of our most successful chapters for many years. I was surprised when the chapter was inactivated. I hope national will consider reactivating it soon.

holy eyesore batman!

and yay for NYU having 2 single-letter chapters!

Just checking in to see if the Gamma chapters had been posted yet. I'm up after that with the Deltas.

I'm in class today. Yes, on a Saturday from 9 am to 5:30 pm! So I guess I'll post when I get home.

See ya!

ETA: The 1920 edition of Baird's (while flawed) is online via Google books.

* Inactive Chapters

My alma mater, Indiana University, has several single letter chapters:

Delta Gamma (Theta)
Delta Zeta (Epsilon)
Kappa Alpha Theta (Beta)
Kappa Kappa Gamma (Delta)
Sigma Delta Tau (Upsilon)

Single letter chapters now closed:
Sigma Kappa (Tau)
Theta Phi Alpha (Zeta)

Our thread leader, Alpha Frog said in a later post to do this however we wished. It just seemed easier to post the individual chapters and let someone elected by our fearless leader coordinate and collate the results for each sorority. Since many of the NPC sororities did not use the Greek letters in order or added numbers, this seemed the best way to make sense of chaos, which is what I do best.

I had each chapter perfectly lined with the Greek letter name, school and founding date, but when I hit submit, everything went awry. I have tried to fix it four times and each time, it does the same thing, so I think I will wait for my son to get home and have him take a look at it...that's why we have kids, right?
