Phi Gamma Delta, also nicknamed FIJI or
Phi Gam, was
founded in 1848, and today we have over 110 chapters at
the premier colleges and universities in the United
States and Canada.
What is a Fraternity?
"A
fraternity is an association of men, selected in their
college days by democratic processes, because of their
adherence to common ideals and aspirations. Out of their
association arises a personal relation which makes them
unselfishly seek to advance one another in the arts of
life and to add, to the formal instruction of the
college curriculum, the culture and character which men
acquire by contact with great personalities, or when
admitted to partnership in great traditions."

Newton D. Baker (Johns Hopkins 1892, Washington and Lee
1894)
