Hey Local GLO's...When were you founded???
 

Greetings all sorors, sisterfriends, visitors, and brothers! I was wondering if you would mind leaving some info about your organizations' founding day and date!

I am a member of Alpha Sigma sorority, which is out of the University of Wisconsin - Whitewater. We were founded on October 14th, 1898. We are also the oldest sorority in Wisconsin http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

------------------

I am a member of Alpha Theta Chi sorority from the University of Michigan. We were founded in 1989 at U of M.

I am a member of the second OU chapter of Alpha Sigma Kappa - Women in Technical Studies (yes, the whole title is our name http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif ) We were founded at the University of Minnesota (Twin Cities Campus) on May 1, 1989, which is most appropriate: May Day, a day to celebrate friendship. Our national website is www.alpha-sigma-kappa.org

Hope you find the information helpful and your endeavor successful!

Hello everyone. I am from Sigma Alpha--Sisters in Agriculture. We are made up of Agricultural and non-Ag majors...but us girls like to have fun and do community service at the same time. Anyways, we were founded at the Ohio State University, January 26,1978. Is that all you need? Let me k now if you need more

If I can ask a related question...

My local service sorority used to be a little sister organization of a national frat. When the little sisters were disbanded on the national level, our girls decided to form a new group. We always celebrate our founder's day based on when the little sisters were disbanded. We're nearing our ten year anniversary, and we're not sure if we should celebrate 10 years from when the little sisters were disbanded, or 10 years from when we received our charter from the university recognizing us as an official org.

So what do other organizations consider their founding date?

Hey Pbear...do you go to Truman (and in TLS?)
I know that for us, Sigma Chi Delta, we have two dates...the one that we call Founders Day which is when we declared our letters (April 14, 1991). The other is when the CAOC gave us our charter, which was on May 12, 1991. We don't celebrate this, but we try to have our formal as close to the date as Founders Day as possible. I hope this helps!

Tau Omega Founded April 11,1967

Sigma Alpha is not a local sorority. It was found in 1978 but now we have around 30 chapters across the nation and an organized national board. If you would like an more information please check our website www.sigmaalpha.org

You know what, this has officially gotten on my nerves. I'm a Gamma Phi Beta from UW-Platteville and I did summer session at Whitewater this summer. You aren't the oldest sorority in Wisconsin - we are. We were founded in November of 1867, the year after our college was founded, and have been going strong ever since, we just went national along the way. :)

Not to mention there have been sororities at UW-Madison since 1875.

And it's not even Wisconsin's oldest local sorority, as Beloit College's Theta Pi Gamma was founded in 1896. Of course, they weren't recognized by the university until 1908, but they were still founded earlier.

I have a feeling that this may be one of those "firsts" with lots of modifiers, like, "We're the first local sorority in Wisconsin that has stayed local throughout its entire existence."

Still, 105 years is an awfully long time for any sorority, and should be congratulated.

prdlocal -- your sorority and my chapter were founded in the same year. :) 1898 represent.

Remember, you are never a former member of your sorority unless you disaffiliated completely. Local or national, you are still a sister of AGG!

Very true! Those girls will forever be my friends and *sisters* :)

founding date
 

[COLOR=royalblue] hey- well nu sigma chi was founded in november of 1928- and our house was built the next year- we just celebrated our seventy-fifth aniversary! We started to die out- but two pledge classes combined provided 16 n.m's and we're hopefully on our way to big numbers again:)

alpha lambda chi
 

This local girl founded the local sorority known as Alpha Lambda Chi at the University of Texas at Dallas on February 8th 2003. So we're just babies. But we already have a constitution, bylaws, creed, coat of arms, our first rush, (so there's an alpha and beta class), and excellent ties with Panhellenic. We want to go national very soon. So here's to Alpha Lambda Chi THE TRUE REPRESENTATION OF A WOMAN!

Congrats and best wishes to you!!!

Phi Chi was founded in 1998.

Congrats Meg!!!! Have a blast with your new sisterhood!

May 3, 1971

Phi Nu was founded on December 8, 1853. We are in planning for our 150th anniversary!!!

Damn, 150years! Why did you never go natioanl or join one?

I don't know why we didn't go national. We are doing just fine being local. It's been mentioned. There's just so much history tied into our school though. I'm not sure more chapters would be quite the same.

I am a founding member of Lambda Omega Pi, a coed fraternity. We were founded April 20, 2001. We're small but tight-knit. :)
