That's what I thought! I think this one is neat.

Yeah, I like that too.

And being the history geek I am I looked up the date of Thanksgiving Day in 1888 and it fell on November 29, so the date of founding is actually November 28.

This is what the website says:

"At last, all was finished on Tuesday...November 27, 1888, but there was one more meeting of the two friends on the following afternoon before they separated for the Thanksgiving recess, at the top of the college building in what was then the Philological Library. It was there that the two girls embraced each other and said 'Tri Delta is founded'"
