PHI DELTA PSI FRATERNITY

PHI DELTA PSI FRATERNITY, INCORPORATED

Phi Delta Psi is a college fraternity consisting of functioning undergraduates, and soon to be flourishing alumni chapters on major campuses in major cities throughout the country. The fraternity was founded at Western Michigan University as a non-profit organization under the laws of the state of Michigan on March 21, 1977. Phi Delta Psi was later incorporated in November of 1977. The fraternity later established a little sister organization named the Sapphires.


The Founders are:


The founders of the organization saw fit, with due respect to our Greek Brothers, a need for change. This change was a new organization that could carry on fraternity tradition. Our organization also set forth an atmosphere geared toward the stimulation of the young black college man--making him aware of his individual potential of unlimited self-improvement.

The primary objectives of Phi Delta Psi, as outlined in the fraternity constitution, are:

Phi Delta Psi and the Sapphires are not just a social fraternal family. Up to this point in time, our concept is seen as a logical progression from individual self improvement to the larger goal of social betterment for the masses. Education will always be the key, the proven way to break the cycle of poverty, discrimination and deprivation of our rights. Each step in the academic progression is further proof of the educability and hence leadership potential of those at the bottom rung of the so-called, "socioeconomic ladder." We are involved in community services and hope to one day be able to offer aid to the Underprivileged throughout the world.

Our members have no choice but to be "leaders of men." We are a fraternity with a definable purpose and definite goal in mind. For we believe, "ALL THAT IS PUT INTO THE LIVES OF OTHERS, COMES BACK INTO OUR OWN"..


OPPORTUNITY IS KNOCKIN'...


"WE MEASURE A MAN

BY THE CHARACTER OF HIS MIND

RATHER THAN BY THE THICKNESS OF HIS BEHIND!"
