Phi Delta Theta
Description
The IL-Gamma chapter of Phi Delta Theta (Phi Delt) is the youngest fraternity on campus, though the national organization has a long, rich history. Phi Delta Theta was founded on December 26, 1848, at Miami University in Oxford, OH, by six undergraduate students who are collectively known as “The Immortal Six.” Phi Delta Theta was founded on the cultivation of friendship among its members, the acquirement individually of a high degree of mental culture, and the attainment personally of a high standard of morality.
