Sigma Phi Delta
DELTA SIGMA PHI BETTER MEN . BETTER LIVES . Delta Sigma Phi was the first of its kind, a fraternity open to men of all races, religions and creeds, as long as they were men of high character. We have challenged our members to be “The Better Man” for 115 years. Today, we are on a mission to become America’s Leading Fraternity by setting a standard of excellence for a truly lifelong membership. Part of that plan is to continue to grow our movement to find better men across the nation. We believe The Better Man is one who carries the key characteristics of the men who started our fraternity. He is a man of Courage, standing up to friends and opponents alike, supporting what is right. He is a man of Action, not a bystander; he acts when others only watch. He is a man of Excellence, in constant pursuit of perfection. Being “better” is not about becoming Fraternity of the Year, or winning any number of awards. It’s about making the world a better, happier and more worthy place to live— for ourselves and for all mankind. Founding Father / WHAT IT MEANS We are a national organization, with more than 95,000 living members working together for a common cause— to better the world around us. Our world is neglected by typical men who handle business, politics, love and everything in between, with a typical mindset. Delta Sig provides an opportunity to join a movement, to challenge that status quo. If you see the need for a better world, then you have found the right men to associate with. -

For more than 114 years, the women of the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC) — today representing 26 international women’s organizations working in partnership and friendship — have sought to advance, preserve and protect the sorority experience. NPC is unique because we function as a conference of 26 independent organizations and not as an association. The decisions and strategic direction of NPC are established and determined by those 26 organizations collectively and collaboratively, while at the same time allowing for autonomy.
