Miami is actually known as The Cradle of Fraternities. Union College would be the The Mother of Fraternities.

The "Cradle of" that you're thinking of for Miami is the Cradle of Coaches. And according to the Miami Greek Affairs webiste is is in fact known as the Mother of all Fraternities, so if you disagree, I suggest you take it up with them.

OH! And I live 15 minutes from DG's Exec offices.
