# of Single Letter Chapters Still Active?
This is a spinoff of AF's thread listing all of the NPC groups by single letters...
In this thread, ALL groups can play! There are 24 letters in the Greek Alphabet -- how many single-letter chapters does your GLO have which are still open/active? |
Here is the list for Alpha Delta Pi. We have 16 of 24 active single letter chapters. I am proud to say that my chapter, Tau, will celebrate 100 years in 2012!
ACTIVE: 1905 [Delta] University of Texas - Austin 1907 [Zeta] Southwestern University 1907 [Eta] University of Alabama - Tuscaloosa 1909 [Iota] Florida State University 1910 [Kappa] Samford University 1910 [Lambda] Brenau College 1911 [Omicron] Duke University 1911 [Pi] Iowa State University 1911 [Rho] Boston University 1912 [Sigma] University of Illinois 1912 [Tau] University of Kansas 1912 [Upsilon] Washington State University 1913 [Phi] Hanover College 1913 [Chi] Wittenberg University 1913 [Psi] University of California - Berkeley 1914 [Xi] Ohio University INACTIVE: 1851 [Alpha] Wesleyan College for Women (inactive since 1916) 1905 [Beta] Salem College - Winston-Salem, NC (inactive since 1909) 1905 [Gamma] Mary Baldwin College (inactive since 1910) 1906 [Epsilon] Tulane University (inactive since 1977) 1908 [Theta] Lawrence University (inactive since 1969) 1910 [Mu] Women's College of Alabama (inactive since 1913) 1910 [Nu] Randolph-Macon College (inactive since 1960) 1914 [Omega] Louisiana State Univ/A & M College (inactive since 1985) |

Prior to 1890, chapters that were established after a previous chapter had folded were given that chapter's designation letter. Then, at the 1890 convention, it was determined the second chapters would use the letter Beta to preface the chapter letter to show they were the second chapter of that letter and closed chapter letters would not be re-used. Chapters that were closed and then later reinstated use the designation "Deuteron" (a small delta set superscript to the letter) for the Greek term meaning "second". So theoretically: Beta Gamma: University of Wooster, Wooster, OH - 1876-1914 Beta Beta: St. Lawrence University, Canton, NY - 1881-1903, 1915 Beta Zeta: University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA - 1882 Beta Tau: Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY - 1883 could/should have been single-letter chapters considering they were founded before the final single-letter chapter was founded in 1884. |

Ohio State University is Omicron Deuteron, and was founded in 1878. They were reinstalled in 2005. At least this is what the website siad The chapter was the first fraternity on Ohio State's campus and their most famous member is Jack Nicklaus. That I know to be true |
This is accurate as of right now too.
And I'm curious, why doesn't AST have an Epsilon chapter? Quote:

Wow! I'm suprised my sisters didn't post on this one! If I'm wrong, please correct me!

What the heck is 'deuteron' ?
|
Typically it is a chapter that has become dormant (inactive). Oftentimes, it has re-colonized or re-established.
Our sorority does not use it but many others do |
Alpha Phi has 21 of 24 active single letter chapters.

We could also add Phi deuteron, Stanford (1892-1944, 1978-)
Our confusing Phi/Phi deuteron chapter history: Our Phi chapter was established at Univ. of the Pacific (then in San Jose) in 1889. The Phi chapter charter was transferred to Stanford in 1892. Stanford "outlawed" sororities in 1944. In 1959, a chapter was established at the new University of the Pacific in Stockton as Phi. When Theta was able to return to the Stanford campus in 1979, the re-established chapter was given the Phi deuteron (Phi the second) designation. Both Phi/UoP and Phi deuteron/Stanford still exist.

And, because AOII does not name its chapters in order, there are a few double-letter chapters that are older than single-letter ones, so the game doesn't work so well for us. (Although most of the oldest chapters are single-letter.) |

Nu Chapter at Hanover College was rechartered in 1959, not 1989. |
