Did you know...
Members of Phi Gamma Delta hold their Greek letter in reverence. Therefore, they limit their display to a select number of places, such as the front of the chapter house, the fraternity flag, class rings, and the member badge.
When the fraternity is named in campus or interfraternity publications, they prefer the full spelling of Phi Gamma Delta rather than the use of the Greek Letters or the nickname Fiji.
