Transmit Greatness: Recruiting the Next Generation of Phis

Guided by The Bond, our founders envisioned Phi Delta Theta as a fraternity grounded in Friendship, Sound Learning, and Rectitude, believing these values would inspire members to lead virtuous lives and positively influence the world. Over 175 years, through member dedication, Phi Delta Theta has evolved into a premier fraternal leadership society, offering transformative experiences and fostering community that profoundly impacts countless lives.

Looking ahead, the Fraternity must remain agile to meet the evolving needs of current and future members. Today, Phi Delta Theta faces a critical juncture amidst challenges such as declining college attendance, the struggle of many to find their place, and escalating mental health issues. It falls upon us, as fraternity men, to step forward as a steadfast source of support during this pivotal time.

As our Founder Robert Morrison once said, “To do what ought to be done, but would not have been done unless I did it, I thought to be my duty.” It is up to our community to transmit greatness to the future generation of Phis, especially those who may not yet realize the lifelong benefits our brotherhood provides.

Starting this fall, Phi Delta Theta General Headquarters is calling on all chapters to help us welcome 5,000 new members. We are challenging the Phi Delt nation to transmit greatness by referring and recruiting young men who exemplify our values. By highlighting the benefits and opportunities of membership in Phi Delta Theta, we can help more young men navigate life’s challenges with the support of a community dedicated to their personal and professional growth.
