History of the North American fraternity and sorority system

This article is about the history of the North American fraternity and sorority system. For the broader history of North American college fraternities and sororities in general, see History of North American college fraternities and sororities.

This page deals with the development of a coordinated system of college fraternities and sororities in the United States and Canada. These organizations coordinate their activities among themselves, through inter-organizational groups, like the National Interfraternity Conference and at many colleges and universities through university administrative staff assigned to coordinating activities.

For a history of the development of colleges and fraternities themselves, see History of North American college fraternities and sororities. That history encompasses the period prior to any coordinated system, and a range of organizations not included in any coordinated system.
