Acacia Fraternity

Ohio University

Acacia is a men’s college fraternity founded on May 12, 1904, at the University of Michigan. With dozens of chapters across North America, over 50,000 men have joined our ranks in pursuit of Virtue, Knowledge & Truth.

Built upon these principles – our members serve their communities, pursue academic and professional success, and enjoy lifelong Acacia brotherhood.
