(Not that I'm sure how many schools have all four)
Illinois has all four, and I once heard that it was the reason ADPi was ADPi and not ADPhi, i.e. ADPi changed its name so they could colonize there. No idea if that's true or not.

Not sure that it was specifically Illinois but. (From the Wikipedia page about ADPi)
n 1905 the Adelphean Society changed its name to Alpha Delta Phi (ΑΔΦ), but was later changed because a men's fraternity by the same name was already well established at many universities where ADPi wanted to start chapters.

So it was the extension to Illinois that was the key issue.

Yes, it was the first encounter of the two groups on the same campus, as far as I can tell.
