List of NPC Sororities by Founder's Day Date (calendar date)

Alpha Omicron Pi was founded on January 2, 1897 - however Founders' Day is celebrated on or around December 8th due to most schools being on break on January 2nd and December 8 is one of our founder's birthday.

Regarding Delta Gamma, I would simply put Christmas 1873 (as it is very probable it wasn't exactly on Christmas Day). The year of when Founders' Day is celebrated is irrelevant because when the organization was actually founded is what gives the group its age.

Out here I've only every been to Founder's Day celebrations in February...probably because the 8th of Dec. falls right around finals for a lot of schools.

Here in WI we also have Founders' Day celebration in February - and I think MN has theirs in November. . .
