High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Chi Psi Fraternity is a fraternity and secret society consisting of 29 active chapters (known as "Alphas") at American colleges and universities. It was founded on Thursday May 20, 1841, by 10 students at Union College with the idea of emphasizing the fraternal and social principles of a brotherhood. It was the first Greek-letter organization to be founded on these grounds rather than the literary characteristics of the seven existing societies. In addition, Chi Psi was the first fraternity in the nation to establish a fraternity house, at the University of Michigan in 1845, originally called a "lodge" because of its resemblance to a hunting lodge, the name stuck and now all Chi Psi houses are referred to as Lodges.
