Theta Trivia

127, after Eta Rho, and my Chapter, Eta Pi were installed this year

Anyone up for more trivia?

Which of our four founders had daughters who pledged Theta? Bonus points if you can name the daughters and the chapters pledged.

[ComradesTrue]

Ok, this thread has been dormant for awhile! Anyone still around and interested?

We all know that our Founding was Jan 27, 1870, but how much later was it when our Founders "sported" their new badges to chapel for the first time, thereby publically declaring themselves members of a Fraternity for women?

About two months? Did they sport them in March at chapel?

[ComradesTrue]

Yes, March 14 1870.

As an aside, the TCU grad in me had to snort at the following comment on Wiki: "Theta was the first women's Greek organization established at four Ivy League schools (Cornell, Princeton, Yale, and Harvard), as well as Michigan, Vanderbilt, Baylor, and Stanford universities."

Ha, which of these is not like the others?!? With apologies to our EE sisters, that just truly made me chuckle.
