The list represents the first ten chapters of our modern day fraternity system. Phi Beta Kappa had long become an honor society by that date.
Only Sigma Phi at Union, and Alpha Delta Phi and Sigma Phi at Hamilton are active today. Kappa Alpha and Delta Phi at Union closed within the past five years. Delta Phi at Trinity closed in 2001. Kappa Alpha, Sigma Phi and Delta Upsilon at Williams closed in 1964 when fraternities were banned.
The Chi Phi connection to a Society by the same name organized at Princeton in 1824 was thoroughly discussed in a well documented history of Chi Phi written in 1939 and the conclusion was that there was really no direct connection between the current Chi Phi Fraternity and the society at Princeton. The oldest of the three Chi Phi groups that make up the present fraternity was not founded until thirty years later. Only recently years has Chi Phi reclaimed any conenction to the earlier group.
