Let's go by chapter, and list the university where all 26 NPCs have that chapter. (Yes, I realize not ever group has a chapter for every letter-deal with it.) Since I *think* it's most common, let's go Alpha-Omega, then Alpha Alpha, Alpha Beta, Alpha Gamma, etc then Beta Alpha, Beta Beta, Beta Gamma - well, you get it.

Delta Gamma - Lewis School for Girls

While you are right in that this was Delta Gamma's first ever chapter, its designation was actually "Psi". One of my wise DGs on this board told me that chapter denoted as "Alpha" was at Mount Union College in Alliance, Ohio, 1882-1908. I should also mention that Psi has been used more than once, so you will sometimes see the Psi-II designation for when the Psi name was used again (i.e. recycled), but at a different campus.
The DG chapter designated as "Beta" is at University of Washington in Seattle, WA, but our 2nd ever chapter was actually elsewhere (and I am not sure where it was). I am looking in my NM Education Materials, but it doesn't apparently to be explicitly stated as to which was Chapter #2. Suffice it to say that in the earliest days of DG, they didn't really follow the Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, etc. ordered naming convention. That came later on.
