Theta Xi, founded on April 29, 1864 at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, New York, was originally restricted to students of engineering but is now a general social fraternity.  The flag is a vertical triband of light blue-white-light blue.  On the center is the crest from the fraternity's coat of arms, a unicorn's head couped in bay coloring (brown with black mane).  In the upper hoist and lower fly are the Greek letters of the fraternity's name in white.
