True, but the "South never died" mentality was VERY strong in parts of the South until the 1960s. I do not know a lot of about Phi Mu's founding, but in GA and other Southern States, many people at that time had family members who had fought in the war, and never thought as if it was truly over. Hence some of the confederate sentiments.
