This thread has the wrong title. Alpha chapters are not always the first chapters. Delta Gamma, like Chi Omega, named their single letter chapters in reverse. Their mother chapter, at the Lewis School, was called the Psi chapter.
Likewise, the founders of Kappa Sigma named their chapter at UVa "Zeta." "Eta" came next (at Trinity, now Duke).

Of course, I think we all knew what Taualumna meant by "Alpha chapter." Just another example of diversity, even in what seem like the simplest and most obvious things, among GLOs.
