Concerns you, as a Greek Prospect, may have

I don't have the money.

Our fraternity costs less than college dorms and most apartments even with national dues added in. In comparison to the tuition at Illinois State University, our dues and/or rent are very minimal. Only half of one's education comes in class. The other half comes from one's life. Where can you get better leadership experience, management training or lessons in teamwork than in Delta Sigma Phi? If you contemplate this for a moment, how could you not afford to join?

I don't have the time.

We all have the same amount of time; we spend it differently. Successful people learn how to manage their time. Learning to manage time is one of the most valuable lessons of our Fraternity education. Everyone spends time watching TV, daydreaming, playing games, etc. Delta Sigma Phi teaches our men to organize effectively. In all reality, pledging does not take more than a few hours a week.

My parents don't want me to join a fraternity.

All parents have a concern about their sons joining a Fraternity. They are afraid that grades will drop, that time will be wasted, or hazing will occur. None of this applies to Delta Sigma Phi. If your parents have any concerns about your interest in Delta Sigma Phi, we will gladly call and explain to them about the ideals that we stand by in our fraternity. We are sure they will have no further objections.
