I was curious to know what other fraternity members on Greek Chat are member of fraternities or sororities that can trace their history to a college literary society?

Technically speaking, Alpha Phi Alpha began as (what we call) a social study club, then a society, then fraternity. We rarely call it a literary society, but that's pretty much what it was.
