Rush Phi Delt - Fall Rush 2010
Since 1873, the UC Berkeley chapter of Phi Delta Theta has been a staple of the Cal community. We invite you to come by during rush to meet the bros, have some fun (and food), and discover what our fraternity is all about!
If you are interested in our fraternity and have any questions, please contact Recruitment Chair Mark Glicksteen.
RUSH FAQs
Q: Why rush a fraternity?
A: There are 24,000 undergrads at Cal. To find your place in this huge community, it helps to join several campus groups that share your interests. A fraternity is one of the best ways to meet upperclassmen who've been in your place before, get connected with influential alumni, and develop your leadership skills. And you will graduate from Berkeley with a set of lifelong friends.
Q: How does one take part in rush?
A: Just stop by the house during any of our events and get to know some of the brothers!
PHI DELTA THETA FAQs
Q: What sets Phi Delt apart from the other Berkeley fraternities?
A: Generally, what sets one house apart from the others on campus is the group of guys in the house. The brothers of Phi Delt are welcoming, easy-going guys, and most of us never thought we would join a fraternity. First and foremost, we are a house of close friends. We host frequent sorority exchanges, and we're big on brotherhood activities, intramural sports (soccer, football, basketball, frisbee), and philanthropic events. Come by and see for yourself if this is the fraternity for you.
Q: Are there any financial or time obligations to joining Phi Delta Theta?
A: As with any other organization, there are both financial and time obligations to joining Phi Delt, but they are minimal and can be flexible. Scholarships are available based on need and academic performance.
Q: Is there hazing involved to join the fraternity?
A: No. Hazing is against Phi Delta Theta's policies, our recognition agreement with UC Berkeley, and California state law. Furthermore, we do not believe that subjecting new members to dangerous or humiliating rituals is the best way to develop lifelong friends.
Q: Where is Phi Delta Theta?
A: 2726 Channing Way. That's between College and Piedmont, one block up from Crossroads, and right here on the map. It's the tall blue house with a large deck in front, near fraternity row.
