ACACIA

Nickname: Acacia

Acacia is a Greek Social Fraternity with the distinction of being the only International Fraternity to choose a Greek word as its name rather than Greek letters. Acacians strive to achieve excellence and balance in college and throughout their lifetimes. Acacia was founded by Master Masons in 1904 at the University of Michigan, and today is an international fraternity with chapters in Canada and across the United States.
