The Mystical Seven Society was founded at Wesleyan University in 1837. There were seven founding members of the secret society that was one of the first college fraternities in the United States. It was the first college fraternity to admit women and did so in the 1840s. The Mystical Seven expanded to other universities, organized as temples. Emory University’s Mystical Seven was organized as the Temple of the Sword. - Local Identifier:
