What school?

At Lawrence Tech, Phi Kappa Upsilon is the oldest fraternity here.
The founder of our university founded them in 1932 (or maybe they were founded in '33, a year after the school opened) so they get grandfathered into random things. For instance, they're the only org with a house. They're a local fraternity. They expanded with 4 chapters but the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma chapters are no longer existent (even though Alpha and Delta were both here at LTU). I think the oldest sorority here is Delta Tau Sigma, another local org. I know a lot of fraternities and sororities have come and gone at this school, though. Lots of locals. |

The oldest fraternity of record at University of Mississippi was called WWW Rainbow, founded in 1849, DKE followed in 1850. All chapters closed during the Civil War. The Rainbow group revived in 1867 and the entire national was absorbed by Delta Tau Delta in 1866 (thus, the title of the Delt magazine). Beta was a relative latecomer in 1879.

Indiana University-
Frat: Beta Theta Pi (Pi Chapter) Sorority: Kappa Alpha Theta (Beta Chapter) |
Johns Hopkins University
Johns Hopkins was founded in 1876. Beta Theta Pi, Alpha Chi chapter, was founded in 1877. They're the oldest, but Phi Kappa Psi was close behind in 1879. I don't think either has ever closed/recolonized.
JHU didn't start admitting women until 1970, and in 1982 both Phi Mu and Alpha Phi colonized, making them the oldest sororities on campus. I believe Alpha Phi was recolonized at least once though, so I would say Phi Mu is the oldest continuously running sorority. |
George Mason University
If I remember correctly a local was colonized by Kappa Sigma and that colony helped start a local sorority that later became Chi Omega, which I think is funny because a Kappa Sigma was one of the founders of Chi Omega.
