===Beta Sigma Tau===

[[Beta Sigma Tau]] was founded in 1948 at Baldwin–Wallace College, which was later renamed [[Baldwin Wallace University]]. The Founders stated that the purpose of the fraternity was "to end barriers among people and to have a foundation based upon a brotherhood and democracy which transcends racial, national and religious differences." Beta Sigma Tau was merged into Pi Lambda Phi November 1, 1960. At the time of the merger there were 8 active chapters of Beta Sigma Tau. The Baldwin–Wallace College (OH Beta Tau) chapter is the sole surviving chapter of Beta Sigma Tau.<ref>Memorandum of Agreement as to the Merger of Pi Lambda Phi and Beta Sigma Tau, October 1, 1960</ref> The founder of Beta Sigma Tau was [[Stanley Tolliver]] of Baldwin–Wallace College (1947).<ref name="2010directory"/>

The University of Toledo also recognized a local chapter called Beta Sigma Tau from {{dts|1996}}–{{dts|2005}}, without legal or institutional connection to the national fraternity, but which nevertheless professed to continue its "ideal of transcending racial, national, and religious differences."<ref>{{cite book |last1=Torbenson |first1=Craig LaRon |last2=Parks |first2=Gregory S. |title=Brothers and Sisters: Diversity in College Fraternities and Sororities |date=2009 |publisher=Farleigh Dickinson University Press |location=Madison, New Jersey |isbn=978-0-8386-4194-1 |page=158 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=lJ0hFQlKx4oC&dq=%22Beta+Sigma+Tau%22+toledo&pg=PA158 |access-date=15 July 2022}}</ref>
