That's true. Let's not confuse everybody, though. Beta Theta Pi was the first fraternity at O.U. The Beta chapter of Delta Tau Delta has been on campus since 1862 (I think I made a mistake above -- 1858 is when the fraternity was founded. -- I'm gonna check and go back and change it.)

When I was there, the Betas (not the Beta Delts) were a really good house.
