At Iowa State, we had a splinter in the beginnings of the 1900s. My fraternity, Delta Upsilon was founded by the Colonnades Club. Before the foundation, three groups split, at different times. In 1905 the Colonnades was founded, in 1908, the first faction split to become the Colonials because they did not want to be affiliated with a National GLO. In 1910, another group broke from the Colonnades to become the Palisades. From the Palisades, five men broke of to form El Paso Club in 1911. All four groups became affiliated with National GLOs.
--The Colonnades Club became the Iowa State Chapter of Delta Upsilon in 1913.
--The Colonials became Beta Deuteron Chapter of Theta Delta Chi in 1919; even though they had split from Colonnades because they didn't want to affiliate.
--The Palisades became the Phi Chapter of Alpha Sigma Phi in 1920.
--El Paso became the Beta Alpha Chapter of Delta Sigma Phi.
