since 1957
In the fall of 1955 a group of engineering students at Clarkson got together to form a colony of Triangle, a social and academic fraternity comprised of engineers, architects, and scientists. On November 16, 1957 the Clarkson chapter of Triangle Fraternity was officially installed as a chapter after two years as a colony organization. Their house at 29 Bay Street was purchased in the late 50s.
In September 1969 the Clarkson chapter of Triangle was expelled from their national for "refusing to adhere to course-of-study membership requirements." The brothers become a local fraternity, Tau Delta Kappa. on April 18, 1970. In 2012 TDK lost their recognition from Clarkson due to repeated incidents of serving alcohol to minors. They exist today as an unrecognized organization.
