It lists all our chapters in founding order and further displays this early practice! There are quite a few more iterations of chapter repetitions, including the interesting and potentially "cursed" Delta, which has not been reassigned to any chapter. Eventually we took on the policy of not reassigning chapter names, and chapters closed now retain their designations.

Wow! 7 out of the first 8 chapters had their letters reused somewhere including the letter designation for the founding chapter! (but I guess that isn't too bizarre given that by the time it was reassigned, the sorority's target school characteristics would not have included the school at which they were founded.)
