The foundation of Delta Sigma Phi is brotherhood. Every semester brothers organize brotherhood events that help foster brotherhood including bar crawls, trips such as White Water Rafting and Spring Break, and traditions.
In the fall the chapter takes a trip to West Virginia's New River, one of the top two class five rafting sites in the United States. Pledges are welcome to come and it is one of their first opportunities to really see how real the brotherhood at Delta Sigma Phi is.
Like the White Water Rafting trip, the fall is home to the unmatchable Delt Sigs hayride. Included are basement-size bonfires, country-style hayrides, a date of your choice and a ridiculously good time.
Parties
Delta Sigma Phi's property is an idea venue for hosting East Lansing's premiere social events. Events vary throughout the year from Welcome Week, weekend parties, date-parties, Greek Week parties, tailgating and 1-on-1s to simply brothers getting together with a few close friends and enjoying the weather, grilling and playing volleyball. Live bands, DJs and themed parties are also frequent.
Formal Events
Several occasions during the academic year do not follow the mold of the typical college event. These formal celebrations include the Greek Gala, National Convention, Regional Leadership Academy, Closed Rush, Formal, Semi Formal and others. Chivalry is a value of any Delt Sig, and at these events we are nothing less than impressive.
Trips
The random trips can easily be the weekends you remember the best after you leave college, and organizing trips when you live in a 22 bedroom house is easy. Trips in the past include Daytona Beach, Acapulco, white water rafting, Cancun, Cali, Aspen, New York road trips, 6th street in Austin, Cherry Festival/Controlled Chaos, Bonnaroo, Sky Diving and many more.
Sports
With a diverse house comes different athletic abilities. Almost every sport can be associated with Delt Sigs during any given year including football, basketball, baseball, softball, frizbee, volleyball, ice hockey, roller hockey and dodgeball. We play in Inter-Fraternal, IM and community leagues, along with charity events held by other East Lansing organizations. Volleyball, horseshoes, croquet and some minor football and baseball is common on our property alone. Brothers are also involved in swimming, running, lifting and other fitness activities.
