Six members of the class of 1849 founded Theta Delta Chi at Union College in Schenectady, New York, in 1847.
The fraternity was established by six members of the class of 1849, including William G. It is recognized as the eleventh oldest college fraternity. The founding occurred at Union College, an institution that became known as the "Mother of Fraternities" because three of the earliest Greek-letter fraternities were established there in the 19th century.
