This information was collected from "The Men of Delta Tau Delta Fraternity" and other various sources.
Few things to note:
- I'm not perfect and may have made some mistakes, there are a few things I couldn't find anywhere and if you know of some gaps I left out, or any incorrect date let me know and I will do my best to keep this as updated as possible...hopefully as more colonies receive their charters! During my research, I discovered some obvious errors in the The Men of Delta Tau Delta Fraternity, so it's records and this list are not identical. I only changed dates that I know were incorrect and if I was able to verify the correct year.
- If a chapter name has a prime by it that means it was originally the "XYZ" chapter but due to closing so early in the fraternity's history, it was replaced by another school. It was common for the fraternity to reshuffe chapter designations early on in the fraternity's early years, so many designations appear to be out of order according to their charter year. Example: Gamma Prime was West Liberty College which closed 3 years after the fraternity itself was founded, the title of Gamma Chapter later went to Washington & Jefferson College and has held it ever since. This "prime" tradition ends with Beta Iota, and every chapter thereafter has kept its name.
