History Question
 

When did the ADPi website make its initial debut?

Thanks! I am working on a timeline for my chapter anniversary web site.

The website launched in 1998, according to the history section of said website...

(blushing) Guess I should have looked there first! Thank you!

Oh, good - a game! Is this like Jeopardy! or what?

How many children did Eugenia Tucker Fitzgerald have?

no, it was just a random question.... but since you asked...

I have no idea! Ella had 12... Do I get any points for that? :)

WOW! I didn't know that Ella was so prolific!! It would be wild to hear how many Adelpheans/ADPis are her legacies!

Alas, Eugenia had none. So, I'll ask, and maybe the next person who answers can ask a question (just in time for Recruitment!).

The Adelphean Society, which became Alpha Delta Pi, was the first secret society for college women in the world. At what college was The Adelphean Society formed, and what is distinctive about that college?

That was a softball!

The Adelphean Society was founded at Wesleyan Female College which has the distinction of not only being the birthplace of the Philomathean Society (Phi Mu), but it was also the first women's college in the world.

My turn: What chapter celebrated 100 years of sisterhood in 2006?

Delta at UT-Austin

Which chapter, also in Texas, will be celebrating THEIR 100th this coming year?

ZETA!!

[hijack] Is it just me, or is the website now *IMPOSSIBLE* to navigate using the menu bar?? [/hijack]

Near which chapter was Eugenia's father born? (bonus points if you can name the building on that chapter's university campus that was named after his family)

Is it Gamma Lambda, University of Rhode Island?

The Tucker House.

Yes, Gamma Lambda at URI is correct!!

Tucker Hall was definitely no marina! It is a residence hall. (there is an oceanography campus that probably has a marina...) Eugenia's father's family was from South Kingstown, RI. There's also a "Tucker House" on campus, and tho I can't find any history on it, it's gotta be from a related Tucker too! [scurries to do more research...]

We all know that Eugenia Tucker Fitzgerald's roomie became a Founder of the Philomathean Society. Which founder was she?
