University of Alabama, Birmingham

Samford University

Alpha Omicron Pi
Chi Omega
Phi Mu
Zeta Tau Alpha

**This should knock out DG (only chapter founded at the school).
** AXO and KD, there is not a chapter in Birmingham.

My guess is Phi Mu...

Either way, trojangel.. Congratulations.
Interestingly enough, while Phi Mu encourages initiation through collegiate chapters, when there is not a collegiate chapter nearby, alumnae chapters may perform the initiation themselves. We have a traveling "trunk" of ritual paraphenalia.

Does AXO have the same? Also doesn't mean she can't travel to the school with the chapter of her choice as well...

She went to Troy State University. She has mentioned it several times since joining GC. She also works with many Phi Mu's and has posted in the ADPi forum multiple times.

Then we're fairly certain it's Phi Mu (unless I miss my guess and somehow, it's ADPi!)!!!

I still say it's Kappa Delta. First because of the three stars on the pledge pin, and second because where it was founded.

Founded at Virginia State Teacher's College:
Kappa Delta
Sigma Sigma Sigma

Founded at Virginia State Normal College:
Zeta Tau Alpha
Alpha Sigma Alpha

The names of these colleges may have changed, but this is what an old NPC document I have refers to them as. They may now be referred to as the "Farmhouse Four" or whatever, but according to the NPC materials I have, this is what the colleges were called when they were founded.
