And, we were taught the reasoning for us being a Fraternity is that the word Sorority is Latin based, but the word Fraternity is Greek based. Since we are a Greek Letter Organization, then it made sense to use the Greek based term. When I look up each on dictionary.com though, it says fraternity is based on Middle English and sorority is based on Latin.
