What type of fraternity is Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia?
Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia is a music fraternity for men. Sinfonia is a social fraternity both legally and philosophically. However, sometimes confusion results from an incorrect assumption that Sinfonia is a professional fraternity. Professional fraternities serve to advance a particular profession and its members within that profession, and as dictated by the United States Department of Education (Education Amendment Act of 1972, Title IX), professional fraternities must be co-educational, meaning that both males and females may hold membership.
