I believe the reason there isn't much information is because again we are private (not sure how that affects our existence in the "Greek" world, ). Olivet is a
very small campus, our school in general is not well known, let alone Soronian. Even for us to look up our houses history is hard because in 1852 there was a fire which destroyed most of our documents prior to that time. What we have documented is the history the school and alumni have provided over the years. As far as being the first "sorority" that is just what we have always been told. Please if I am mistaken let me know ( in a nice way please
) I did not and do not mean to offend anyone. I'm just repeating a bit of our history.
I will look into the sorority vs. society thing because again I didn't realize there was much of a difference, ( maybe being naive) that is interesting though.
