PHI DELTA CHI



Beta Lambda Chapter

Chapter History About Calendar Brothers Chapter Officers Pictures National Homepage Home

The Beta Lambda chapter of Phi Delta Chi is a co-ed professional pharmacy fraternity at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, FL. On January 12, 1991, the Beta Lambda chapter was founded at Southern University. Southern University then merged with Nova University in 1994 to form Nova Southeastern University. This unity of brothers is still strong today as we can depend on our brothers for important tips in school or work, to help when times get rough, or to be a friend to share fun times with.

As a national organization, Phi Delta Chi strives to improve its programs to better serve our Brothers, our profession, and the public. Phi Delta Chi is truly a life-long experience that promotes scholastic, professional, and social growth in its Brothers. In this way, we encourage service to patients and improvement of the public health and our profession.

As another school year begins, all the brothers of Phi Delta Chi look forward to meeting the incoming class of 2010. We promise to give the new pledges all the tools they need to have a successful (and most of all fun) school year. If you are a current or incoming student at Nova's College of Pharmacy, visit our Pledge Info page to see what you need to do to become a part of our fraternity and a leader in the field of pharmacy. First, second, and third year students are welcome.
