There are over 1,300 Alumni from the Syracuse University Chapter of Delta Upsilon. We feel strongly that the men of Syracuse University should always have the option to join a non-secret and non-hazing fraternity. We are committed to this ideal because we believe that true Brotherhood and lifelong friendships are built on mutual respect, trust, and honor.

Over the past several years, our Alumni have raised substantial funds to make our return to Syracuse University a reality and establish an educational endowment to enable future generations of DU undergraduates to attend award-winning leadership conferences and participate in global service initiatives. Beyond financial support, we also help in numerous other ways.
