50th Anniversary - Saturday October 15, 2022
Welcome to the 50th Anniversary celebration of the Delta Chi Fraternity at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown!
The year 2022 is, in fact, a celebration of two anniversaries. The foundation of the Delta Chi chapter at UPJ was laid in the Winter of 1962 by Dawn McKee, Geoffrey Miles and William Miles when they started organization of The Phi Delta Psi Fraternity. Phi Delta Psi's official founding date was January 22, 1963 making it the second Fraternity founded on the Johnstown campus. On April 2, 1971 The Brothers of Phi Delta Psi where sworn into the pledge program of Delta Chi and the chartering Delta Chi - Johnstown took place October 13, 1972 at at banquet at North Fork Country Club. Delta Chi became the first international fraternity on the Johnstown campus. On October 15, 2022 we celebrate and remember the founding of both organizations and recognize the men who have guided the organization to success for over half a century making it the older local and oldest surviving international greek organization at Johnstown.
