Founded in 1907 at the University of Illinois, Triangle is a social, professional STEM organization of Engineers, Architects, and Scientists. We are the only national social fraternity requiring specific fields of study, and Triangle is one of only three national fraternities that does not have a Greek letter name. The Iowa State Chapter was founded in 1964 and had a strong tradition of recruiting academically focused men. In addition, we strive to find men that live their life with integrity - those who make the choices to be leaders, scholars, professionals, and gentlemen in all aspects of our lives.
Triangle is a home away from home. The word "fraternity" implies Brotherhood, a close group of friends sharing common interests that live together. Triangle provides an excellent place for students in technical fields to satisfy the many needs of college life. Triangle recently moved into one of the newest houses on campus at 2136 Lincoln Way. We take pride in taking great care of the property and ensuring an inviting place for all. See it for yourself! We will gladly set up a tour for you.
