Some comments in the "Daily Facts" thread made me think of this, but I
thought it better to start a new thread.
WHICH CHAPTER WAS THE "BIG BROTHER CHAPTER" OF YOUR CHAPTER?
A BBC is the chapter which provided the ritual team for initiation of the
"founding fathers" of a new chapter (BBC term invented by me
)
I remember an old Paed. that had this info in it...I also remember it had
the WRONG BBC for my chapter (Gtown).
So I'll get it started...here are the ones I know:
BBC of Georgetown is Hanover (ThKN) [Univ of KY when Union occurred]
BBC of Eastern KY U is Georgetown
BBC of Western KY is Georgetown
BBC of Vanderbilt (re-installed 1991) is Union Univ.
[I think the original Vandy chapter, 1920's-1930's, was installed by
Cumberland Univ chapter which hasn't been open in decades. Or maybe
they installed themselves....many of the "founders" in the 1920's were
alums from other chapters]
Probably the Paed dropped this list as there were more and more closed/
rechartered chapters with multiple BBCs (And to make room for instructions
on "how to tie a tie"
)
Of course Cole installed most of the early chapters solo, so by default that
would be Boston I suppose.
Any others?
