Sigma Chi's founding - significantly generalized.

There was a disagreement in the DKE house at Miami of Ohio. Resulted in 6 members being expelled/resigning from the fraternity to begin their own. Joined later by one non-DKE member. The fraternity was founded on three ideals - Friendship, Justice, and Learning.

Our founders are Benjamin Piatt Runkle, Thomas Cowan Bell, William Lewis Lockwwod, Isaac M. Jordan, Daniel William Cooper, Franklin Howard Scobey, and James Parks Caldwell.

Always willing to share more details if anyone's curious. Great thread though. Keep it up.
