Congrats to the PA Alpha Delta brothers on procuring a new house! After being ousted from our beloved 2000 North Broad by Temple, our resourceful brotherhood found a new place to call home. Take a guided virtual tour: The new chapter house at 1629 Diamond Street has 10 bedrooms and...
Welcome to the spring ’22 class of new brothers and “later on” to a departing graduating class seniors. There is much to be proud of here. 15 years ago, the chapter was shuttered and our future was in question. Today the brotherhood thrives and perseveres. They are 60+ brothers strong,...
