Why Delts?
Academics
Our Academic values and expectations at Delta Tau Delta are amongst the highest in the Greek System. We take pride in having one of the highest GPAs of the 12 fraternities at the WIU and continually challenge our members to achieve high GPAs. Equipped with a newly renovated study room and an online database of past exams and study files, we truly put academics at the very forefront of our fraternal experience.
Values Based Organization Zeta Lambda House
Delta Tau Delta is a value driven organization, and we strive to make all of our decisions based on our mission and values. Our members live by the principles of integrity, accountability, truth and courage. Building a fraternity around these values sets forth the expectations for how the fraternity will run and the behavior in the fraternity. Bringing these values into our Brotherhood allow for personal and organizational accountability and overall excellence.
Leadership Academy
The academy is a personal development process based on The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen Covey. This process is not designed to create better presidents or recruitment chairman, but to offer our undergraduates the opportunity toDelts assess their personal skills, strengths and weaknesses; so that they may better prepare themselves for their future. Recently added to our leadership development opportunities is an experimental process that takes place in the Rocky Mountains, and another on the North Atlantic off the coast of Maine. The purpose of this expedition is to provide the basics of outdoor leadership including basic communication and leadership skills.
