That's odd...  I was under the impression that Stanford claimed to have
initiated women in the late 1950s.

Kapp initiated Susan Robinson as C. S. Robinson on 4/29/1972, and sent
her as a delegate to the 1972 convention.

Shortly afterward were Rhonda Cohen and Sally Greenberg on 2/4/1973.

She was sent in again as C. Susan Robinson on 5/1/1977, so I'll agree
that Stanford was first to register a female brother under her full name,
it would appear that at least kappa (and possibly Alpha Chi, I'm waiting
to hear if they beat Kappa to it) had female brothers first.
