Yeah, ADPi was founded in 1851, but they were founded as the Adelphian society or something, then Phi Mu was founded a year later as the Philomathean society. PiPhis were also founded before Kappa Alpha Theta in 1867 as I.C. Sorosis. BUT Theta was the first sorority to be founded as a Greek lettered organization (although, they were technically the fourth sorority to be founded). The others changed to Greek letters somewhere along the way.
But yes, ADPi is the oldest women's "secret society."
Edited for typo's.
