That is exactly right!

As for remembering what chapters were first, at Iowa State Chapter, we only really worry about the first seven. They have a prominent place in our history. The first seven: Williams, 1834; Union, 1838; Middlebury,1845; Hamilton, 1847; Amherst, 1847; Wesleyan, 1850; Vermont, 1850; Western Reserve, 1851; Rochester, 1852; Colby, 1852; were the "Seven Stars" of the anti-secrecy fight. These chapters were members of the Anti-Secrecy Confederation which developed into Delta Upsilon.

As for a chapter for deceased brothers, we have a Chapter Eternal, but that is only spoken of in the Funerary Ritual. Not many DUs really know about that.
