Ahhhh, but here's the trick... (and if we've been paying attention to all posts in the Trivia thread...)

1899 Phi Chapter was chartered at Hellmuth Woman's College in London, Ontario, Canada. So, it was indeed north of the Mason Dixon line AND the U.S. Canada border.

In 1940, the name Phi was reissued to Univ. of Southern California (a practice no longer done.)
