The largest national sorority (I think) is Chi Omega (300,000 initiates), but they were founded only in 1895. No way were they prolific enough to get to Delta Nu by 1912.
Therefore, I definately think you are dealing with a local sorority. |
My dear Watson, I think you've got it!
by the way that's terrible deducting skills to decide that because Chi-O has the most people they didn't make it to Delta Nu until later. At least one sorority (AOPi...who chooses chapter designation, I believe) doesn't follow that pattern of Alpha Beta, Alpha Gamma, Alpha Delta, etc. Likewise several fraternities don't do this either. So clearly a sorority with far less initiates could make it to Delta Nu in possibly their first year.

It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
