What is the name of the second founded fraternity? When was it founded?

• A. Delta Kappa Epsilon, 1844
• B. Kappa Alpha, 1865
• C. Alpha Phi Alpha, 1906
• D. Kappa Alpha Psi, 1911

Answer: (B)

Finding which is second founded comes down to comparing founding years. Delta Kappa Epsilon dates to 1844, making it the oldest among these options. Kappa Alpha follows, founded in 1865, so it comes next. The other two were started much later, in 1906 and 1911. Therefore, within this set, Kappa Alpha, founded in 1865, is the second oldest and the correct pick. (Kappa Alpha here refers to Kappa Alpha Order, founded at Washington College.)
