About Rush

Delta Tau Delta was founded on the principles of brotherhood, trust, integrity, and lifelong learning, among other important beliefs. It is in the heart and spirit of every Delt to pursue a life full of brotherhood and life-long learning.

What is Rush?

A vital part of any organization’s foundation is its ability to proliferate and expand upon individual membership, to solidify the longevity of its own existence. Delta Tau Delta believes in recruiting and retaining the brightest and most talented leaders of the community, both in the classroom and in the real world. To fully entertain this idea, “Rush functions” were created to recruit interested members

Fraternity rush is held bi-annually at Western, once in the spring semester and again in the fall. Any student in good academic standing is welcome and encouraged to “rush” out amongst his peers and see if the Greek lifestyle is for him. The Interfraternity Council (IFC) at Western is the student-run governing and program body for fraternities, helping to coordinate such vital functions as rush and social events.

What’s in it for me?

Fun and engaging activities are usually planned as “ice breakers” to welcome the interested members, and usually turn into largely attended events. The Zeta Lambda Western Delts are confident their recruiting efforts are among the best men at Western, attracting the widest, most diversely skilled future leaders of the community.

About Delta Tau Delta

Delta Tau Delta was founded in 1858 at Bethany College in present day West Virginia. Eight men, angered by a fixed vote for a prize in oratory to be given at the Neotrophian Literary Society (a forum for students to practice and demonstrate skills in poetry, public speaking and writing essays), responded by forming a secret society. The purpose of the new society, known only by the Greek letters Delta Tau Delta, was to see the Neotrophian Society returned to popular control from the Phi Kappa Psi Fraternity, and to form an organization of the student body drawn together by common aims, brotherly regard and desire for mutual support. Delta Tau Delta was born of the knowledge that integrity is essential. The founding principles of Truth, Courage, Faith and Power have provided a guide for both the Fraternity and its membership. Since 1858 the Fraternity has spread to nearly 200 campuses with over 120 active chapters and colonies comprised of about 6,500 undergraduate members. For over 150 years, Delta Tau Delta has in excess of 150,000 men who have become members of the Fraternity.
