Recruiting New Members

Most Deltasigs heard about the Fraternity by word of mouth, but a significant number of our recruits first learn about Delta Sigma Pi through marketing tools and publications. As a Deltasig, you're always marketing the Fraternity in a positive light, but the way you communicate online and with the media can have a much bigger impact on the Fraternity’s image and recruitment than you might expect. Always remember our core values and seek to put forth a positive image in all recruitment and communications. As you consider recruitment and other forms of communication, keep the following resources in mind.

The national winner of the Outstanding Professional Activities award, along with the four provincial winners, receive grants made possible by the Boyd Professional Development Fund. Sean, George Mason, and Andrea Boyd, California-Riverside, set up the fund to help chapters further their development in providing excellent professional activities.

The William W. “Bill” Jr. Leadership Fund provides a financial grant to a chapter who identified strength, creativity and innovation in their recruitment efforts. In 2022, the winner was selected from among the provincial winners of the R. Nelson Mitchell Outstanding Collegiate Chapter Award based on each chapters’ recruitment section of the application.
