Date of founding

Some notes
Hello! I'm a current student at U.Va. and a member of the greek system- there are some updates that could be included in this draft!

I believe Delta Sigma Phi also has a lawn room in addition to the others, although I can't find a good source for it, but there has been a delta sig living in the same room for years and they pass it down.

The section on the Rolling Stone article also should be updated with the Columbia School of Journalism review -- http://www.cjr.org/investigation/rolling_stone_investigation.php

Alpha Sigma Phi became residential this last year and has a house on Jefferson Park Avenue, although I can't find a source for that either.

The nicknames of the sororities and fraternities should be more uniform and added to. Sigma Delta Tau = Sig Delt in addition to SDT, Delta Sigma Phi = Delta Sig, Theta Delta Chi= Theta Delt in addition to TDX, also Alpha Chi Omega should be Alpha Chi but that name hasn't really been used although the sisters want it to be

Sorry for the lack of concrete sources! I thought I'd be better to have the info than not. --Wannesa (talk) 17:00, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Hey Wannesa, thanks for the input! I added the CJR report and some of the nicknames. If you can find sources on the ADPhi house or the Delta Sig lawn room, feel free to add the info or leave it here and someone else can add it in. I don't think Delta Sig has a reserved room, but I could be wrong. Puppysnot (talk) 13:20, 21 June 2015 (UTC)

Chapter name column?
Should there be a chapter name column? For example, Alpha Phi Omega's chapter at UVa is Theta.Naraht (talk) 22:43, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I considered that, but decided it wasn't necessary enough to include and might make the table too cluttered. I generally mentioned chapter designation (if I could find it) and any nicknames in the "Notes" column. We could always change that if people disagree. Puppysnot (talk) 23:37, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
 * I'll add to notes. I'll try to find as many as I can.Naraht (talk) 00:13, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Inconsistency of Founding Dates
AEPi's founding date is given as its first arrival at UVA, ADPhi's founding date is for the most recent incarnation. IMO, first chartering date should be used.Naraht (talk) 12:11, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
 * That's fine, and it's something I thought of doing as well. I originally went with the more recent date for consistency's sake, since the university's IFC recognizes ADPhi's founding as 2010. But using the original date would better represent the chapter's history. I'll change it accordingly. Puppysnot (talk) 18:03, 23 May 2015 (UTC)

Run through
I got everything that I could find with web searches. The chapter name exists for all, just not split out. I have founding dates for most of them, some of them, especially some of the pre-civil war ones don't know anything other than the year. Let me know if there are any lacking that you want me to try some sort of deeper search.Naraht (talk) 00:27, 24 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks a lot for all of your help, Naraht. I think it looks pretty great right now, and I don't see any serious gaps or omissions anywhere. I'll let you know if something else comes up. Puppysnot (talk) 03:35, 24 May 2015 (UTC)

Controversy
I was reading the page on Phi Kappa Psi and noticed under the controversy section of that page, there was a 1992 gang rape case at the UVA chapter. It caught my eye because I had only recently read about the 2014 rolling stones controversy and came here to double check if it was the same fraternity, then noticed it is not even mentioned in here.

I am not a frequent editor, would someone else mind adding it if they think it is appropriate?
