Re: what does "deuteron" mean?

As far as I know, Phi Sigma Kappa is the only GLO that uses deuteron, triton, etc. naming for chapters. These are the greek words for two, three, four, etc. I think. The greek letters were used to denote the first "set" of chapters of Phi Sig, and then the next set had the greek word for two after the greek letter. As for my chapter, Zeta Triton, that means that we are in the third set of Phi Sig chapters. Hope I was able to explain things relatively clearly
