Our Mission Statement

Delta Phi Epsilon is an organization of women founded on the principles of developing interpersonal bonds of friendship that will continue beyond one's college experience. It is a bond to be built on sisterood, pride in the tradition of the sorority, and support for one another. It is therefore our goal to set forth specific philosophies that will meet the needs for both present and future relationships for the sisters and the sorority, itself.



Our Purpose

Delta Phi Epsilon was formed "...for the purpose of promoting good fellowship among sorority girls...to help in acquiring knowledge, appreciation, discriminating judgment and a true feeling of sisterly love, through the interaction, one upon the other, of sympathetic and friendly natures. Its objective is in the influence of its members on each other to acheive the liberal spirit, the habit of kindly judgment, to be unimpressed by the external displays of life, to care for our sisters because of what they are, not because of what they may achieve."
