Our Greek Letters

Phi Gamma Delta brothers hold our Greek letters in reverence. Therefore, we limit their display to a select number of places, such as on the front of a chapter house, the Fraternity flag, class rings and the brother badge. When our Fraternity is named in campus or interfraternity publications, we prefer the full spelling of Phi Gamma Delta rather than use of the Greek letters or our nicknames.

Nicknames: Fiji or Phi Gam
