About: Syracuse Triad

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The Syracuse Triad is the name given to the three women's sororities founded at Syracuse University in the USA. Alpha Phi was founded in 1872 by 10 of the original 20 women admitted into the university. Gamma Phi Beta was founded in 1874 and with it came the term "sorority", which was coined at the time of its founding. (Prior to that, women's Greek-letter organizations used the term "women's fraternity", since no more appropriate term existed.) Alpha Gamma Delta completed the triad in 1904.
