About us
OUR MISSION Phi Delta Theta was built on three pillars that haven’t budged an inch since the Fraternity was founded by “The Immortal Six” 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. Helping every individual to meet his true potential is the bedrock of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity. By celebrating each person’s true self, and by learning from each other’s strengths while helping to improve each other’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 “mold” 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. OUR HISTORY As 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. On December 30, the “Immortal Six” put their signatures to The Bond of the Phi Delta Theta in Wilson’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. PHI DELTA THETA TODAY In 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.

Weekends well spent ⚔️ Phi Delta Theta brothers from San Diego State, Millersville, and Iowa State are serving through the Live Like Lou Connect & Serve Program—giving back and honoring the legacy of brother Lou Gehrig. Signing up to be paired with an ALS family is not only meaningful service, it’s also one of the three steps toward becoming an Iron Phi Chapter. We’re proud of these brothers for showing what it means to leave ALS better than we found it.

United by shared values of service, Phi Delta Theta, the Live Like Lou Foundation, and the Permobil Foundation are proud to provide life-changing mobility and support to ALS families. This partnership is deeply connected to the life and legacy of Todd Nisbet, a devoted Phi Delt who passed away from ALS in June 2025. On September 30, Fraternity leaders joined Todd’s family in Nashville to plant a memorial tree, with a sister tree soon to be planted at Phi Delta Theta General Headquarters in Oxford, Ohio. While in Nashville, the Permobil Foundation presented permanent signage at their headquarters that will also honor Todd, ensuring his courage, leadership, and service continue to inspire for generations.

Brotherhood, BBQ, and giving back. ⚔️ #AlumnusProfile For Chris Loschiavo, MSU ’05, barbecue is more than just food—it’s a way to bring people together and make a difference. As a Memphis native and recently retired US Army veteran, Chris has built a community around his Blue Suede BBQ products, and he believes in being a good steward in society. Through his TAR HE4L East Carolina Vinegar Sauce, proceeds go to the Live Like Lou Foundation , Phi Delta Theta’s partner in the fight against ALS. Each bottle sold helps fund critical research and provides support for families facing the disease.

"Over half of my job as a volunteer involves simply showing up and letting the members know that I care about them and am there to serve and help them improve their chapter, grow their membership, and enhance their undergraduate experience by being a member of Phi Delta Theta." #VolunteerProfile https://lnkd.in/gbgR_fXb

"To me, brotherhood means that no matter what situation you find yourself in, there will always be a brother to turn to—whether for help or just a good laugh. I love strengthening that bond with my brothers by taking them on trips like these, ones they will never forget." Brother Daniel Patterson, CSUN '28, from California Zeta is exploring Yosemite with his chapter brothers, while taking the brotherhood bond to new heights. ⚔️ #phidelt #phideltatheta
