There are good reasons for considering both 1934 and 1956 as "founding" dates for the Fairmont State chapter. 1934 is true for its founding as Alpha Eta of Delta Sigma Epsilon. In 1956 Delta Sigma Epsilon merged with Delta Zeta, so that's the chapter's founding date as DZ's Epsilon Iota chapter.
Just a historical tidbit .....
