- Alpha Gamma (ΑΓ) was an American collegiate fraternity. It was founded at Cumberland University in Lebanon, Tennessee in 1867. Perhaps 21 chapters may have developed, with prominent chapters at Washington & Jefferson College, Trinity College (Duke), Mercersburg College, Southwestern Presbyterian University, Cumberland University, and the West Virginia University. Eight of these are known. The fraternity's badge consisted of a golden shield with a globe, six stars, and a pennant with the letters ΑΓ centered on the globe. The fraternity eventually disbanded, with Baird's indicating that this occurred in the 1880s. The Trinity (Duke) and West Virginia chapters met their demise because of local anti-fraternity laws. Several chapters, including those at Washington & Jefferson College, Southwestern Presbyterian University at Alabama became chapters of Alpha Tau Omega, with the Washington & Lee chapter joining Chi Phi. These chapter withdrawals occurred over a period of several years, with no specific merger process. (en)
