| A Tradition of Successful Members
Whether it is the success of its individual members, chapters or the Fraternity's expansion process, Delta Chi is known for being a successful organization. Alumni who have gone on to be politicians, businessmen, professional athletes and actors pepper our records. Undergraduate members continually serve as Greek Council presidents, student government leaders, varsity athletes, and university ambassadors.
Delta Chi chapter members staff numerous community service and philanthropic events, organize campus-wide educational programming, dominate intramural athletic programs, and host safe and enjoyable social events. The Fraternity's 94% expansion success rate is one of the highest of all inter/national fraternities because we specifically recruit student leaders, varsity athletes, scholarship recipients, and other leaders on campus during the expansion to set the best foundation possible for future success.
Below is a list of just a few Delta Chi brothers who have gone on to be successful in their professional endeavors. Again, the one thing that all of these men have in common is Delta Chi.
