1904 Hey all another alumnus here As we were all taught the fraternity was founded in 1904 However just today I came across something peculiar a book with the following passage In the fall of 94 a chapter of Pi Kappa Phi was established and then in the spring of 95 our chapter of Sigma Nu was installed Although Pi Kappa Phi has more than twice our number yet we will fight to count her for game Fair enough except for the fact that this book that was published in 1896 The book is The Delta of Sigma Nu Vol 13 which is an annual history published by that fraternity The article in question The Founding of Beta Tau N C A M about their new chapter on the campus of the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanical Arts in Raleigh NC can be found in Section 13 pages 9 11 You ll find it here on Google Books Can anyone shed light on this Might the author have actually been referring to Pi Kappa Alpha Or perhaps to an unrelated now defunct fraternal organization Thoughts
