  • Delta Upsilon (ΔY) is the 6th oldest international (4th oldest remaining), all-male, college, Greek-letter social fraternity and is the first non-secret fraternity ever founded. Delta Upsilon was founded in 1834 at Williams College in Williamstown, Massachusetts when 30 men came together in response to the activities of the two secret societies on the Williams campus. Delta Upsilon's mission is Building Better Men by focusing on the fraternity's non-secret heritage and Four Founding Principles: The Promotion of Friendship The Development of Character The Diffusion of Liberal Culture The Advancement of Justice Delta Upsilon's Vision is to be "the premier men's fraternity committed to Building Better Men for a global society through service, leadership development and lifelong personal growth of our diverse membership. " On March 28, 2009 Delta Upsilon recently initiated its newest chapter, and the second of the 21st century, at Webster University in St. Louis, Missouri making it the 152nd chapter in the history of the fraternity. The initiation was also significant as it was the first time in more than 100 years that Delta Upsilon established a Chapter at a school where no previous Greek organizations existed. The initiation was also significant because it included Delta Upsilon's first ever digital initiation, with three Brothers of the Webster Chapter studying abroad in Switzerland being initiated online. In 2009, the fraternity will achieve another milestone by celebrating its 175th anniversary since inception.
