Thanks MysticCat.
But Farm House fraternity might then have all of us beat. They might claim a founding date of 11000 B.C. when plants were first domesticated in the fertile crescent.
Phi Beta Kappa is the oldest greek letter society. That's really the generally accepted answer to this question.
As for who was the first women's group to call themselves a sorority or the first fraternity to have a house or the first group to have traveling secretaries or the first group to bring their badge to the moon... personally, I find those discussions tiresome and pointless.
So here's a better question:
who will be the LAST fraternity or the LAST sorority in existence?
Who will be the one group to survive the publication of their ritual, the dwindling of their numbers, a new round of anti-greek legislation on college campuses and the major lawsuits stemming from their ongoing hazing practices?
