Phi Delta Theta Fraternity Revenue and Competitors

OUR MISSION\n\nPhi Delta Theta was built on three pillars that havenâ??t budged an inch since the Fraternity was founded by â??The Immortal Sixâ?? way back in 1848 at Miami University. The pillars are: 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. Shortened, we refer to the principles as friendship, sound learning, and rectitude.\n\nHelping every individual to meet his true potential is the bedrock of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity. By celebrating each personâ??s true self, and by learning from each otherâ??s strengths while helping to improve each otherâ??s weaknesses, every member of Phi Delta Theta develops into a greater version of himself than he could ever on his own. Rather than try to find young men to â??moldâ?? into some ideal, we celebrate the uniqueness of each individual and, through encouragement, values, example, and brotherhood, empower every brother to exceed his personal expectations.\n\nOUR HISTORY \n\nAs the Christmas holidays approached in 1848, the atmosphere on the Miami University campus in Oxford, Ohio was gloomy and uncertain. This was the mood in which Robert Morrison suggested to a close friend and classmate, John McMillan Wilson, that they consider putting together a new collegiate brotherhood.\n\nOn December 30, the â??Immortal Sixâ?? put their signatures to The Bond of the Phi Delta Theta in Wilsonâ??s room. Their names remain a vital part of the rituals that continue today in every chapter room across the United States and Canada. The Bond has remained unchanged from that day to this.\n\nPHI DELTA THETA TODAY\n\nIn over 170 years of its existence, Phi Delta Theta has expanded to over 275 campuses and initiated more than 270,000 men. Today, Phi Delta Theta currently has 191 chapters and colonies and approximately 178,000 living alumni and 100 alumni clubs in the United States and Canada.
