[edit] Oldest Social Fraternity

The article claimed that Chi Psi was the oldest purely social fraternity, in comparison to the literary societies present at the time. However, Chi Phi was founded at the College of New Jersey (now Princeton University) in 1824, seventeen years before the founding of Chi Psi. However, the current wording could be interpreted as Chi Psi being the first social fraternity at the University of Michigan, as opposed to all of the US. I've made the change removing the line of Chi Psi being the first social fraternity. Nanded 19:32, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

The Chi Phi article states that it was founded on religious and academic ideals. Chi Psi was founded solely for social purposes at Union College in 1841. Though Chi Phi is now considered a social fraternity, it was not so originally, so the Chi Psi distinction still stands. I'm going to put the language back in.--Velvet elvis81 20:58, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Bannerwshadow.gif

Image:Bannerwshadow.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
