Historical Note

In 1936 Lowell Bennion, the director of the institute of religion at the University of Utah, participated in the founding of a fraternity that would be directly tied to the institute program. On 22 January 1937 a sorority was also organized at the University of Utah. The fraternity and sorority were both named Lambda Delta Sigma, with separate chapters for men and women.
