Phi Sigma Kappa - Purdue University

T he undergraduate Delta Triton Chapter is thriving at Purdue. e current Phi Sigs are no strangers to academic success. Over the last three years they have consistently been among the top chapters on the Purdue campus when it comes to grade point average (GPA), boasting the highest GPA among all fraternities in fall of 2014. e group's cumulative GPA currently ranks eighth out of 41 Purdue fraternities. is membership average is above the all- fraternity, all-men's, and all-undergraduate averages. Delta Triton has focused on its local community impact through charitable activities. e brothers have made it a tradition to support the campus Polar Plunge benefiting the Special Olympics. eir involvement and support have garnered the group two awards: the top-grossing Phi Sig chapter in the state, and three consecutive years of having the most participants enter on campus. is past year's involvement resulted in over $1,500 for the cause. e chapter's basketball tournament raised $300 for local campus activities, and several men are working on plans to return to Grand Prix for the 2016 race. ChaPter aChievementS, awarDS anD honorS Chapter members are active in social activities with their fellow Greek students as well as their alumni brothers. Annual spring work days have brought together active and alumni brothers with the purpose of upkeep and maintenance of the house. e renewed commitment to the care of our older home has been evident. Alumni and active chapter brothers also convened for a summer retreat to develop an in-depth recruitment manual for Delta Triton. e active men engaged the help of Phired Up for professional counsel on recruitment to best attract and retain the future of Phi Sigma Kappa. is counsel helped double the previous five-year new member average, yielding 10 new members for a second consecutive time. e 29-member chapter is the strongest we've seen in recent history, and reminiscent of the size alumni remember. e dedication of the current active chapter is evidenced by a strong spirit and energy to become involved with campus life. By promoting good fellowship, encouraging strong academics, and inspiring its members, the active chapter has done its part to keep Phi Sigma Kappa viable at Purdue. The biggest issue we face every semester of recruitment is the condition of our house. The new house would allow us to choose the highest quality of men from a larger list of potential new members. Simply put, a new house would completely change the future for current and future brothers of Phi Sigma Kappa." – Austin Tummers '15, Chapter President
