How does one join Delta Lambda Phi?
Chapters and colonies host publicized, periodic membership drives called “Rush.” If you are interested in joining, simply go to an open Rush party and meet the Brothers. Rush parties are a way of learning more about Delta Lambda Phi and provide an opportunity to see if the Fraternity is for you. Rush parties are also the way Brothers find out more about you. At the end of the Rush period, Brothers select the men they would like to invite to pledge the Fraternity. ‘Bids’ are offered to the men, and they may, of course, either accept or reject the bid. If they accept, the men become pledges and undergo an intensive, roughly eight-week pledge period, during which they learn more about the Fraternity and bond as a group. Pledge who successfully complete all the requirements of the pledge period are eligible for full Brotherhood.
