E. chapter blo somed forth a a recognized ft·aternity at Colgate. 1877 and 1912 are land– marks in Mu's history, for the former date marked the dedication of the Temple as well as the National onference of D.K.E. at Colgate, 1912 is another milestone which signifies the erection of the new Pierce Memorial House.
