Résumé :
Excerpt from Phi Beta Kappa: The Beta of Indiana Chapter, Historical Sketch and List of Members, 1899-1909
In the year of our Lord 1632, The Middle Planta tions of Virginia were established. There, in 1693, was founded the second college in the New World, the William and Mary College. In 1699 the name of the town was changed to Williamsburg and in 1722 it was granted a city charter, the first in Virginia. From 1699 to 1779 it was the capital of the commonwealth and was the political and social center of Virginian life and in?uence. In this historic town, on December 5, 1776, and probably in the very Apollo Room of the Raleigh Tavern where Patrick Henry made his famous speech, was founded the Phi Beta Kappa Society. The first set of by-laws limited the membership to collegians of over sixteen years of age, but almost immediately the scope of the society was widened to take in men prom inent for scholarship or great public service. It was inaugurated as a secret society and there were adopted a Greek motto, a badge of membership, grip, seal, and colors, and this action as well as the designation of the society by the initial letters of its motto has been followed by all Greek letter college fraternities estab lished since. In 1779 charters were granted and chap ters established at Harvard and at Yale, and in 1787 these united in establishing the third New England Chapter at Dartmouth.
