Kappa Alpha Theta "THE FIRST GREEK LETTER FRATERNITY FOR WOMEN" was founded in 1870 at Asberry college, now Depaul University in Indiana. My chapter is the centenial chapter or the 100 chapter founded in 1970.

Other women organizations were founded before us but they didn't use greek letters. We were the first and then others such as Phi Mu started using greek letters. The reason we are a Frat and not a sorority is because the word sorority had not been invented yet.
