Johns Hopkins University

Johns Hopkins was founded in 1876. Beta Theta Pi, Alpha Chi chapter, was founded in 1877. They're the oldest, but Phi Kappa Psi was close behind in 1879. I don't think either has ever closed/recolonized.

JHU didn't start admitting women until 1970, and in 1982 both Phi Mu and Alpha Phi colonized, making them the oldest sororities on campus. I believe Alpha Phi was recolonized at least once though, so I would say Phi Mu is the oldest continuously running sorority.

George Mason University

If I remember correctly a local was colonized by Kappa Sigma and that colony helped start a local sorority that later became Chi Omega, which I think is funny because a Kappa Sigma was one of the founders of Chi Omega.
