Triangle was
founded in the spring of
1907 at the University of
Illinois. There are
currently 30 active chapters
located at outstanding
engineering colleges and
universities all across the
nation. Triangle is unique
in the National
Interfraternity Conference,
being the only member
fraternity that selects its
membership exclusively from
students majoring in
computer science,
mathematics, engineering,
architecture, and the
applied sciences. The
Rose-Hulman chapter of
Triangle, colonized in 1966,
received its charter on May
4, 1968. It was the first
new fraternity on the campus
in 40 years. In 1969, the
chapter moved into its new
45 man house on fraternity
row. The men of Triangle
believe that class work must
be of good quality, but that
a good education is not
necessarily the result of a
mad rush for grades. In the
chapter home of the
fraternity, members seek the
opportunity to supplement
the teachings of the
classroom. In Triangle, each
brother has the opportunity
to learn lessons of group
living and personality and
character development in an
atmosphere designed for
fullest benefit to the
individual. Triangle thus
provides a bridge between
academic life and a career,
as well as a foundation for
success in the years after
college. Triangle continues
to work to develop balanced
men in the fields of
engineering, architecture,
and science by providing an
environment that fosters
personal growth and
professional success. |
