(Redirected from List of Delta Tau Delta undergraduate chapters)

In the early years of Delta Tau Delta, chapter names were assigned, removed, and reassigned in rapid succession. There are at least two incidents of the same name being issued simultaneously. Other chapters selected names and began operating without authorization from the national fraternity; some were eventually authorized, while others were dispatched. Because all records from Alpha Prime were lost and Alpha Third was lax in record keeping and ended in scandal, there are gaps in information, especially from 1858 to 1875.

In 1877, James Eaton constructed a multi-part history of the fraternity for the Crescent magazine from his memory as the founder of multiple chapters, from the fraternity's records, and interviews with living chapter founders. He documented chapters and name changes that were unknown to William Raimond Baird when he published the first edition of his Baird's Manual of American College Fraternities in 1879. For example, Baird lists Mount Union College as Sigma Second but does not list Sigma Prime or the two other Sigma chapters that predated Mount Union. Baird also lists charter dates, but leaves the institution's name blank in some instances. Eaton often fills in those blanks, but tends to list institutions by place name only which presents a different set of challenges.

The following list is a merger of Eaton, Baird, and other sources. Active chapters are indicated in bold. Inactive chapters and institutions are in italics.

Notes

  1. Chapter closed due to the Civil War. Rechartered as Eta Prime.
  2. After the closing of the Bethany College chapter in 1860, this chapter assumed the national leadership role in 1861 and was called Alpha. According to Eaton, its previous name was not documented by the fraternity but as the second chapter, it appears to have been Beta Prime.
  3. This chapter merged with the Gamma chapter when the two colleges merged to create Washington & Jefferson College. The name Alpha was transferred to the Ohio Wesleyan chapter when it became the fraternity's headquarters.
  4. This chapter started as Omicron in 1864 and became the third chapter to be called Alpha when it took on the national leadership role in 1868.
  5. Alpha Second closed in 1874 when its members sold its assets, illegally pocketing the proceeds and joining another fraternity. It was later re-established as the Mu chapter.
  6. This was the Delta chapter from July 1863–1875. It became the fourth Alpha chapter when it took on the national leadership role.
  7. In 2010, the Ohio University chapter pled no contest to a hazing charge and received a five-year suspension.
  8. Suspended for four years in 2021 for hazing and distributing alcohol.
  9. Chapter closed because of the Civil War, during which its founder was killed.
  10. The Alpha chapter at Jefferson College merged with Gamma at Washington College shortly after the colleges merged into Washington & Jefferson College.
  11. Chapter closed because of the Civil War and its charter was withdrawn.
  12. Morgantown Academy ceased operations c. 1862.
  13. This chapter became the fourth to be called Alpha when it took on the national leadership role 1874; its name was officially changed at the 1875 convention.
  14. Known as Beta Beta chapter from 1875–1877. The fraternity withdrew its charter in 1877 because the chapter was "illegally instituted", according to Eaton.
  15. Its founder graduated in 1861 and died in 1863. The fraternity never issued an official charter to this chapter.
  16. Chapter named changed from Iota to Epsilon sometime between 1864 and 1869.
  17. The fraternity withdrew the chapter's charter in 1875.
  18. Chapter closed when college banned fraternities.
  19. This chapter was previously Alpha prime.
  20. After the Civil War, it was re-chartered as Pi chapter, but the name was changed to Eta chapter shortly afterwards.
  21. Was called Buchtel College when the chapter was formed.
  22. Pi Prime was re-established Theta chapter before 1874, probably in 1870 according to Eaton. This chapter was previously Alpha Prime and Eta Prime.
  23. Reestablished from Delta Phi Delta in 1966.
  24. Changed to Epsilon chapter sometime between 1864 and 1869.
  25. Fraternity withdrew the chapter's charter.
  26. Baird calls this Iota chapter. Eaton calls it Rho. Both agree on its founding year and its short life. Jamestown Collegiate Institute ceased operations c. 1875.
  27. A prior charter for this campus was called Xi chapter.
  28. Fraternity withdrew the chapter's charter. The Poughkeepsie Institute ceased operations c. 1868.
  29. Started as Sigma Prime chapter in 1867. Its name was probably changed because of a brief closure of the chapter.
  30. Originally Delta Theta Society.
  31. Established because of a national merger with W.W.W. Rainbow.
  32. The Vanderbilt University chapter disbanded in 2020 in protest of the history of racism, misogyny, and sexual assault in the organization.
  33. Baird calls this Nu chapter, but Eaton says it was Mu chapter. The latter works better with the founding date of the Nu chapter at Lafayette College. The chapter closed because of the Civil War.
  34. Later re-established as Beta Alpha chapter.
  35. Started as Omicron charter in 1864 and became the third Alpha chapter when it took on the national leadership role in 1868. It dissolved in 1874 and became the Mu chapter when it was re-founded.
  36. Reformed as Chi chapter in 1875
  37. Eaton says this duplicated the name of an active chapter, although there were signs that Nu Prime was about to close. Reestablished in 1906 from Skull & Raven.
  38. Re-established as the Iota chapter.
  39. It became Alpha chapter when it took on the national leadership role in 1868.

  41. Re-established as Beta Beta chapter.
  42. Originally a chapter of Sigma Pi.
  43. Name changed to Tau chapter because of accidental duplication of the name Omicron.

  46. Re-established as the Beta Lambda chapter.
  47. Established from a national merger with W.W.W. Rainbow.
  48. Reformed as a colony in 2020.
  49. Charter was withdrawn at the 1875 national convention. Lake Shore Seminary ceased operations in 1881.
  50. Rho chapter was assigned while Rho Prime was still chartered. Eaton attributes this to "negligence" by the fraternity's administration.
