RARE KAPPA NU Antique Bronze Brass Copper Wash Plaque. Measures 4 3/4′ tall, 4 7/8′ wide and 1/4″ thick not counting bolt or screw mounts. Plaque is solid with few thin casting areas wearing through shown in last 2 pictures so check all pictures carefully. No mounting bolts included. I did try few small bolts and was able to just catch, not all that well. Obviously few bolts I tried may not be the right thread or size for mounting so you would need a hardware stores help for bolts. Has its tarnishing, scuffs scratches, age wear, far from new, nice Patina and looks great!
On the campus of Rochester University, on November 12, 1911, Kappa Nu Fraternity was founded by: Joseph Bernhardt, Abraham Levy, Joseph Lazarus, Harold Leve, Morris Lazersohn and Louis Gottlieb.
It was a local organization formed by these six men and extended no further than the campus. As its members graduated, the organization began admitting new members to replace those who had left. Several men who left Rochester met others and organized the Rochester Society thus extending this new organization.
By 1917, there were five loosely connected groups who decided to hold a convention in Rochester and set up the Organization of Kappa Nu as a National Fraternity. This was the first Kappa Nu convention and Nat Sanow was elected the first national president. By the second annual convention in 1918, the University had ten chapters. Other groups continued to colonize through 1931.
Cool Old KAPPA NU Plaque!!! Please check pictures for description and condition.
