Notes
[edit]- ^ Restored in 1881 by absorption of the existing Phi Delta Kappa (local) which briefly had created a 5-chapter national fraternity out of the demise of a still older small national called Iota Alpha Kappa. The Iota Alpha Kappa chapter had been placed there in 1873, and Phi Delta Kappa was formed in 1874, seven years later becoming FIJI's restored Alpha chapter.
