Zeta Psi
The Zeta Psi Fraternity of North America Inc. was founded in 1847 as a social college fraternity. The organization now comprises about fifty active chapters and twenty-five inactive chapters, encompassing roughly twenty thousand brothers, and is accredited by the North American Inter-Fraternity Conference. It has historically been selective about the campuses at which it establishes chapters, focusing on forging new territory and maintaining a presence at prestigious institutions: it was the first fraternity on the West Coast in 1870, the first fraternity in Canada in 1879, and the only fraternity to have chapters simultaneously at all eight Ivy League schools with the chartering of Eta at Yale University in 1889 (although the Brown University chapter has been inactive since 1988). ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
