Delta Upsilon

The hallmark of any great organization is a set of values, an ethos that guides the actions of its members and provides direction in times of trial and triumph. As you begin your journey as a Delta Upsilon brother, it is important for you to be completely aware of what is expected of you. Participating in the Fraternity's Pledging Ceremony requires a promise to adhere to Delta Upsilon's honor code. The Honor Code is part of our ritual, and through your participation in the ritual, you promise to uphold the Honor Code not only during your associate member period, but throughout your life as an undergraduate and alumnus member:

Bradley Chapter
