Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity

What Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity does

Phi Gamma Delta (FIJI) is a national social fraternity founded in 1848 with 144 active chapters across the United States and Canada; the Gamma Tau chapter at the Georgia Institute of Technology was founded in 1926 and has been housed at Landon-Nelson Hall since 2013. The chapter serves undergraduate male students at Georgia Tech, offering brotherhood, leadership development, academic support, intramural athletics, philanthropy, and career networking via the Gamma Tau Mentorship Program. In 2024, Gamma Tau was named the only FIJI chapter internationally to win the Cheney Cup for Best Overall Chapter, was named Best Overall Fraternity among Georgia Tech's 31 IFC fraternities, and raised nearly $19,000 for Children's Healthcare of Atlanta through its Run For The Kids partnership with UGA FIJI.

The chapter operates as a private, non-commercial membership organization with no technology product or SaaS offering. Revenue is derived from undergraduate membership dues and philanthropy fundraising, with no publicly disclosed financial figures. Operations are supported by an annually elected undergraduate cabinet (Treasurer, Recording Secretary, Corresponding Secretary, Historian, Recruitment Chairs, Rush Chairs, and Graduate Relations Chair) plus a Graduate Relations Chair managing alumni outreach. Notable alumni include G. Wayne Clough and Russ A. Chandler, and approximately half of the brotherhood is reported to accept offers from Fortune 500 employers.

The chapter competes within Georgia Tech's IFC ecosystem of 31 fraternities, differentiating on a values-based brand (Friendship, Knowledge, Service, Morality, Excellence), a 25-year consecutive IFC Athletic Trophy streak, top-decile IFC GPA rankings, and a graduate mentorship program connecting undergraduates with alumni at Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, Meta, Northrop Grumman, Capital One, and other leading firms. It is currently preparing for its 2026 centennial celebration.
