The Delta Sigma Phi National
Fraternity was founded in 1899 at the College of the City of New
York and has since grown to include 124 chapters and 7 colonies
throughout the nation. Delta Sigma Phi is known for its high ideals
and strong emphasis upon group and individual development. The Zeta
Lambda Chapter was chartered on April 23, 1982, as the result of
the 1980 intense survey of the national groups available. The Zeta
Lambda Chapter has grown significantly since then and has become
one of the larger fraternities at Rose-Hulman. The Zeta Lambda
Chapter has received the Pyramid of Excellence, the highest
attainable award for chapters, three times since it was chartered.
The most recent in 1997, being one of six Delta Sigma Phi Chapters
nationally to receive this award. In 1980, a chapter house was
acquired at 429 S. Sixth Street. The house presently accommodates
32 brothers.
