THE GAMMA UPSILON TRADITION
T
he Gamma Upsilon Chapter of Theta Chi shares
a storied tradition at Bradley University dating
back to 1949. From our founding to the present,
our proud history speaks for itself through high
academic achievement and leadership within
the membership. With more than 900 initiates,
Gamma Upsilon Chapter has influenced the lives of
numerous men, cultivating lasting friendships in the
process. Many of our best college memories can be
traced back to our home at 1308 W. Fredonia Avenue.
Embodying the values of true friendship and the
helping hand, Theta Chi has continually served
as an enduring system of support on the Bradley
campus for its members. The Theta Chi house was
where we learned the virtues of truth, temperance,
and tolerance and developed leadership skills
not found elsewhere on campus. Throughout
Gamma Upsilon's history, these experiences have
shaped our members into leaders on campus, in
our communities, and in post-collegiate careers.
Since 1949, it has been one of the longest-standing
fraternity traditions at Bradley and is one we want to
preserve for the next generation of Theta Chi men.
As alumni of the chapter, we have a responsibility to
provide future generations with the same experience
to grow as scholars, leaders, athletes, and gentlemen.
Today, we have a unique opportunity to start
fresh, to revisit our core values, and to create an
environment where the next generation of men can
learn and grow through these inherent values of our
brotherhood. We ask you to remember those who
follow and to join your alumni brothers in an effort
we believe will secure Gamma Upsilon's legacy for
years to come.
