Omega Delta Phi
Omega Delta Phi (ΩΔΦ), also known as O D Phi, is an intercollegiate fraternity that was founded on November 25, 1987 by seven students attending Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. Its seven founders known as the "Men of Vision" to fraternity members wanted to create an organization to help students graduate. This initial organization became Omega Delta Phi Fraternity. Over the past twenty years the Fraternity has changed and adopted other values such as an emphasis on Community Service. Omega Delta Phi was named ''Fraternity of the Year'' for 2003, 2004, and 2005 by the National Association of Latino Fraternal Organizations (NALFO).〔http://www.nalfo.org nalfo.org〕 Although one of the Greek organizations that founded NALFO, Omega Delta Phi withdrew their membership in December 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 NALFO membership update )〕
Omega Delta Phi is a multicultural service/social fraternity that aims at graduating its members while giving back to the community. The Fraternity has established itself on over 60 campuses and is predominantly centered in Texas and the Southwest. However, the Fraternity has been experiencing tremendous growth in the Midwest the last 10 years. Although founded mainly by Latinos, the Fraternity has traditionally always been open to men of different backgrounds, as demonstrated through its "One culture, any race" philosophy.
In the early 1990s, Omega Delta Phi chapters were established in university systems such as the Texas A&M University System, University of Texas System, New Mexico and Arizona systems. Later on, because of the increasing popularity of the Internet, the fraternity experienced growth and chapters were founded in cities such as the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex area, Houston, and Seattle. The fraternity established a short-lived international colony in Mexico City, Mexico as well.〔(ODPhi Expansion Information Packet 2001 )〕
In 2000, Omega Delta Phi founded an alumni association to provide a support group for its alumni base.〔(Omega Delta Phi Alumni )〕 The fraternity now has several alumni chapters throughout the U.S. and Mexico The organization continues to grow beyond the Southwestern and Midwestern United States and now has chapters, colonies, and clubs on both the west and east coasts.
