You can try the greek life office, university archives etc.

However when we did our search for inactive chapters on the campus... the only reliable source was: Baird's Manual of American College Fraternities. The greek life office's information ommited so many groups.....


This thing is like a lost spell book now.... out of print and hard to find, try really large libraries.

Carniegie Library of Pittsburgh is where I found the one we used it's a reference book, but if you called them they'd probably tell you the info you needed over the phone.

About 20 editions have been published over the last 150 years. In its 1200 pages it lists all colleges and the chapters which have existed at each one (!), provides detailed histories of ALL the groups and a list of their chapters, quotes significant legislation pertaining to Greek letter organizations, describes fraternities which have disbanded, major locals, important alumni, etc. It lists NIC, NPC, NPHC groups, and all honor societies and professional societies. If you're into fraternities and sororities, this is really, really cool to read.This book was last published in 1991, so the information is still very current.
