"The Lexington Triad was soon formed after the Civil War, and a common heritage has produced lasting ties of friendship among three great National Fraternities: Alpha Tau Omega, Kappa Alpha Order, and Sigma Nu."
KA was founded at a different school (W&L) than the other two.

Delta Sigma Phi was also founded at CCNY. Tau Delta Phi was simultaneously founded at CCNY and NYU by two friends who attended those schools.

Sigma Alpha Iota and Theta Phi Alpha--University of Michigan. Although I believe the TPA chapter there is inactive, SAI's Alpha chapter is still going strong.

Anyone else founded at U of M?

All established at Cornell University. Isn't there an NPC sorority that was founded there? I will add it to my list if someone lets me know.
Sigma Delta Tau was founded at Cornell on March 25, 1917.

Acacia Fraternity was founded at Michigan 100 years ago.

"The year was 1904. Winston Churchill was 30 years old. Anton Chekov passed away. The United States gained control of the Panama Canal Zone for $10 million. George M. Cohan's song, "The Yankee Doodle Boy," was published. The first Olympic Games ever held in America took place in St. Louis. And on May 12, fourteen Master Masons attending the University of Michigan founded Acacia Fraternity."

And at Iowa State the Jefferson Duo relationship is paving the way for FIJI to help Phi Psi return.
They've invited us to their homecoming pairing and there was some talk during IFC Formal Recruitment about having a Phi Fest.
