The Adelphikos Fraternity (spelled αδελφικός), formed in 1913,[1] is a Grove City College (Pennsylvania, United States) social fraternity that originally consisted of 10 members.[2] Adelphikos was the second fraternity on campus, and the first to use Greek letters.[1] The fraternity began struggling in the late 1970s, committing violations of campus rules which resulted in the loss of College recognition during the 1990s.[2] In 2000, the fraternity was re-established as a Christian brotherhood.[2]

Adelphikos does not affiliate itself with any national fraternity system. It is an independent organization, like all other Grove City fraternities.[3]
