Greek Expansion

IOTA NU DELTA

Iota Nu Delta Crest

Iota Nu Delta, founded on Februrary 7th, 1994, is the very first South-Asian interest fraternity ever created.  Established by eight men at SUNY Binghamton, INΔ now has chapters and colonies all over the East coast and as far West as Texas.  We are looking for dedicated men to be the Alpha Class, the founders of Iota Nu Delta at Carnegie Mellon University.

Goals and Values

The mission of Iota Nu Delta is to mold college men into truly well-rounded individuals, promote cultural diversity and awareness, and to serve as an aid in service to the community.  Though South Asian interest, we are not exlusive to South Asian men; in fact, we have brothers from ALL different ethnicities and religions and we whole-heartedly promote cultural diversity on the college campus. Our mottos are "Mind, Body, Soul" and "Brotherhood Eternal". The men of Iota Nu Delta have attained equilibrium between mind, body, and soul, something we believe defines the well-rounded college man. He excels in academics, displays mental and physical strength, has built strong relationships with brothers nationwide, and frequently serves the community. "Brotherhood Eternal" states that the bonds made during college as an INΔ brother will last a life time, exemplified by our heavy alumni involvement and network.

Philanthropy

Iota Nu Delta is heavily involved with the community. The brothers at the University of Pittsburgh have hosted SAMAR Bone Marrow drives and National Gandhi Day of Service (Be the Change Day) on campus. They annually participate in Pitt Make a Difference Day, Pitt Project Oakland, Pittsburgh Cares, and volunteer locally around the Pittsburgh area.  We hope to expand these ideals to the CMU campus as well.

Priorities

While being a brother is an active process, there are priorities that we hold above the fraternity; family, religion, and academics alwys come first. Involvement in the fraternity will never force you to neglect family, religion, or academics. Since being chartered in Spring 2009, Iota Nu Delta at Pitt has been awarded "Highest GPA" twice; this honor is a perfect example of how we stay true to our word that school remains a high priority in our lives.

Leadership

As an Alpha Class founding brother, you will be in an influential position right off the bat and you will undoubtedly leave your mark in Carnegie Mellon University history. Don't fade to the background, lead the movement! Look for us on campus and feel free to come over and say hey; we'd love to meet you
