Alpha Sigma Phi was founded at Yale College (now Yale University) nearly 160 years ago on December 6, 1845.
The three principal founders were:
Louis Manigault
Stephen Ormsby Rhea
Horace Spangler Weiser
It was originally founded as a sophomore class society at Yale (in those days it was not unusual for Yale men to belong to four different fraternities; some of these class societies are now fraternities open to all four classes. Delta Chapter at Marietta College in Ohio was the first all-class chapter, and kept the fraternity alive when the mother chapter at Yale was closed down. In 1907 the fraternity was reestablished at Yale by members of the Yale Masonic Club, with the assistance of Delta chapter.
