True, that the 1939 merger of LXA and TKN was and still is the largest merger ever undertaken and was almost a perfect fit between TKN mostly on smaller Colleges and LXA at larger colleges. But there werre some with both organizations on them. Some did merge and some split off to join other fraternities. Some schools (a few) did not allow the merger of the two.
Maybe the idea of snobbery is true but more like wanting to be elite in their own right.
Some will want to join each of those organizations for just that reason.
OLDU, thank you very much for the bits of information that you put before us!
tallgreekalum, you do have a formidable task ahead of you!

Thanks, Tom, but I've been doing for 4 years now and we just chartered four chapters this year: Northeastern, Duke. Brandeis, and Penn State. Not bad for us, considering we have chartered four chapters in one year since 1836!!
