Our story begins in 1851 at Wesleyan Female College in Macon, Georgia, where six incredible women changed the world. Led by Eugenia Tucker Fitzgerald, our founders formed The Adelphean Society for “the mental, moral, social, and domestic improvement of its members.” The Adelphean Society, later renamed Alpha Delta Pi, was the first secret society for college women. The principles of scholarship, leadership, sisterhood, and service guide over 235,000 women in more than 151 active collegiate chapters and over 150 alumnae associations of Alpha Delta Pi.

It was in the Fall of 1974 when Brother Clarence Christian recognized a vital need in the Mississippi community. He understood the necessity for strong leadership, encouragement, and scholastic aptitude among blacks at Mississippi State University. With the inspiring legacy of Alpha Phi Alpha embedded deep within his heart. Brother Christian called upon nine young promising students with a great capacity to lead and learn to answer the call of a hungry society. Called to leadership, these young men known as the "Fine Line Nine", chartered an outstanding chapter that would serve as part of a national organization that has been at the forefront of leadership since 1906. Thus, the Kappa Beta Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. was born. Driven by a desire to further themselves in a society still suffering from the remnants of a societal decay, known as racial bigotry and segregation, they immediately became leaders within their community, and created their own legacy that continues to prosper to this day.
We are a lifelong brotherhood of committed Christian men seeking the bonds of brotherhood and unity in Christ through the avenue of a social fraternity on a college campus.

Phi Mu was founded in 1852 at Wesleyan College in Macon, Georgia. It began as the Philomathean Society, a literary society, and is the second oldest secret society for women. The Philomathean Society became Phi Mu Fraternity in 1904. Because the word "sorority" was not commonly used when Phi Mu was chartered, its proper name is Phi Mu Fraternity even though it is a women's organization. Phi Mu has chapters across the United States and nearly 150,000 collegiate and alumnae members. The Fraternity is governed by a seven-member National Council that oversees teams of National and Area Officers, all of whom serve on a volunteer basis. In addition to 120 collegiate chapters, each based on a college or university campus, Phi Mu has 175 alumnae chapters in cities and towns across the nation. Membership in Phi Mu is for a lifetime, and the alumnae chapters provide networking, social and Sisterhood activities for members of all ages. Both Collegiate and Alumnae Chapters have officers who handle chapter business and serve as liaisons between their chapters, Area and National Officers, and the National Headquarters. The Phi Mu National Headquarters is in Peachtree City, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. Phi Mu Fraternity and Phi Mu Foundation co-own the building and both staffs work there. Fraternity staff members provide support to Collegiate and Alumnae Chapters and to Area and National Officers. The Carnation Collection, a boutique with Phi Mu merchandise, also is housed at the Headquarters. Most staff members work in the Headquarters each day, but members of the traveling team, including Chapter Consultants (recent college graduates) spend most of their time traveling to collegiate chapters to provide them with education, tools for successful operation, and support. All Phi Mus have different college experiences, but we all share a Bond of Sisterhood. We all believe in the ideals of our Creed: Love, Honor, and Truth. Each Phi Mu who gives time as an active member, officer, or volunteer, contributes to the continued success of Phi Mu Fraternity.

Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity was founded at Howard University in Washington, D.C., January 9, 1914, by three young African-American male students. The Founders, Honorable A. Langston Taylor, Honorable Leonard F. Morse, and Honorable Charles I. Brown, wanted to organize a Greek letter fraternity that would truly exemplify the ideals of brotherhood, scholarship, and service. The Founders conceived Phi Beta Sigma as a mechanism to deliver services to the general community. Rather than gaining skills to be utilized exclusively for themselves and their immediate families, they held a deep conviction that they should return their newly acquired skills to the communities from which they had come. This deep conviction was mirrored in the Fraternity’s motto, “Culture For Service and Service For Humanity”.
