Gosh, I really do try to be nice, but Baby, you have over 100 posts, and you don't know not to ask such a question?

1776 - Phi Beta Kappa was formed at William & Mary

The rest is available in most search engines. Although, how & where you think people are going to say, "Our ritual is just like XYZ's" is just not genius thought.
