How to Join
Thinking Of Joining A Fraternity?
Welcome to Delta Sigma Phi, a place to Live, Learn, and Grow. Our fraternity has been a part of
the Greek community of UNC Charlotte since 1990. Within these years, we are proud to say that we have
created and accomplished many goals. We take part in many activities both on and off campus. We
participate in activities from community service events to intramurals to formal festivities. Every
semester we are always on the look out for the next leaders of our chapter, our campus and our community.
This next semester is going to be an experience that each brother of our organization is looking forward
to. Come experience why Greek Life with Delta Sigma Phi is a time where you Live, you Learn, you Grow...
and you will never forget.
"Live your life to Learn, and Grow with what you've learned about life."
- Dave Marcozzi, Eta Rho Alumni - Psi Class
Rush/Recruitment Week
In order to join, you have to go through Recruitment, or Rush Week. Rush Week is a week
scheduled by the IFC when all fraternities invite men of the university to different recruitment events.
Some of our past events included going out to eat at Hooter's, going to the Comedy Zone or our
Founder's Formal Dinner, formerly known as "Hooker Night" named after the man who helped us get
started, Bill Hooker. All transportation and expenses are all accommodated by the fraternity, and
all events are dry (alcohol free) events.
We would like to invite you to come out to as many events as you wish. However, we also
encourage you to at least come out and give fraternity life a chance, with us, or with any other
respectable organization. If you are a student at the UNC Charlotte and are interested in learning
more or how to join our brotherhood, contact our Recruitment Chairmen.
Bid Session
The last process we go through is the bid session. A bid is an invitation to pledge our fraternity.
This is the process in which the active members gather as a group and discuss which men would be the
best addition to our group. We base our decision on GPA (High School or College), extra curricular
activities, leadership experience and how they interact with the brothers or the other people coming
out to Rush week. We want to encourage having a good relation with the entire group, because if
they are all selected, they will be part of the same pledge class, therefore the same team.
We also encourage you to not be intimidated by this process, we are just looking for all around
good guys to help make our organization the best, and have fun in the process! If you do not get a
bid the first time, we encourage you to come out again and again. Please realize that Rush week is
only 5 days, which means we only have 5 days to establish a relationship with each person who comes
out!
