Rush

What is RUSH?

Rush is a period for anyone interested in Delta Sigma Iota to meet the brothers of this fraternity. We throw a variety of rush events, in hopes of providing you an opportunity to get to know us better and learn more about the fraternity. There is absolutely no obligation in rushing. Rush merely provides a comfortable means through which students who are interested in our fraternity can ask questions and interact with the brothers while having fun at the same time. Rush also provides a great opportunity for us to show the public how Delta Sigma Iota remains active in the community and in pursuit of the goals our fraternity was founded upon.

Rush is absolutely free. All the rush events have been paid for by various fundraisers and events we hold throughout the year.

The purpose of the Rush events are for you to learn about the fraternity and for our brothers to learn about you. While technically you are only required to attend one info session and two open events, as well as an interview. You should definately try to attend all the evnts you can as it will give our brothers a chance to get to know you better and will improve your chances of being extended a bid.

When Does Pledging Start?

A bid is an invitation to pledge the fraternity. After rush week, bids are extended to those who the brothers feel would be a good fit for Delta Sigma Iota. These students then have the choice whether to accept the bids or not. If the students wish to accept the bids, they will then undergo the New Member Education process in which they will learn more about the Fraternity and what it is to be a brother of Delta Sigma Iota.

Will Joining a Fraternity Affect My Grades?

Fraternity life should in no way hurt your grades; in fact, in many ways it can help. One of the pillars of Delta Sigma Iota is Education. The fraternity is an incredibly valuable academic resource for it’s brothers and our pledges, and we require a minimum GPA for brothers to hold office and remain active.

Why DSI?

Delta Sigma Iota is not your typical fraternity. We pride ourselves in following our three pillars, Service, Unity, Education. We are a fraternity with a purpose. Our brothers are highly motivated and driven. We value the knowledge and skills we learn in college and other life experiences and embrace and understand our culture and heritage. We seek to make a difference in the world today as we prepare ourselves to become the leaders of tomorrow. Are you one of us? Rush DSI
