I read this and I have to admit I am more confused now. Is it bec Theta is larger and Phi Nu smaller?

Kappa Alpha Theta was to be a collegiate organization, whose
members joined as students. It was in this context the organization considered itself ‘the first Greek letter fraternity for women’. Behind the statement was the vision of a national
– and ultimately an international – organization, founded for college women to help them stay the course.

I thought this was interesting:

According to Bairds Manual of American College Fraternities, the Adelphean Society was founded in 1851 at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia. The Society became a national organization in 1905 and changed its name to Alpha Delta Pi in 1913. The Philomathean Society, founded in 1852 also at Wesleyan Female College became a national organization and adopted the letters Phi Mu in1904. Finally, in 1867 I.C. Sorosis was founded at Monmouth College in Illinois and adopted the Greek letters, Pi Beta Phi, in 1888.

DG was founded with greek letters in 1873, for example, before IC Sorosis became "pi phi."

Oh, I'm a trouble maker tonight!
