A
lpha Delta Phi and UW share a storied tradition dating
back to 1910 with our roots as the Kalevala Club. From
that time to the present, our proud history speaks for
itself through high academic achievement and leadership within
the university. With nearly 2,000 initiates, the Washington 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 Alpha Delt experience.
While many of our alumni have gone on to successful and
distinguished careers in business, engineering, technology, and
countless other endeavors, the common bond of our brotherhood
remains, along with our shared principles and values. Most of us
can trace the roots of our success to one place: 2106 NE 47th Street.
rough Alpha Delta Phi we not only learned the importance
of friendship, knowledge, service, morality, and excellence, but
we acquired valuable assets, which include leadership skills,
organizational skills, social skills, teamwork, and character.
Oentimes, these traits have been integral to our personal success
and helped shape the men we are today.
Our chapter house is clearly the focus of undergraduate life for
Washington Chapter. It has been a home away from home for
hundreds of young men and a classroom where our brothers have
learned the purpose of our fraternity in that "this new association,
with a true philosophical spirit, looking to the entire man, develop
his whole being—moral, social and intellectual." However, if we
wish for Alpha Delta Phi to continue its strong presence on the
UW campus, and attract future generations of undergraduates
who will flourish during their time within its walls, we must ensure
that we are providing a safe, modern, and competitive facility. We
are fortunate to have outstanding undergraduates, but our future
is by no means assured without an attractive facility. Now is the
appropriate time to secure our future.
