PHI GAMMA DELTA (FIJI)

About

Established in 1985, the Gamma Kappa chapter of Phi Gamma Delta (FIJI) has one major goal: to develop and graduate courageous leaders from Mines and prepare them for the next stages of life.
All Fijis nationwide hold true to our five core values, instituted over 175 years ago: friendship, knowledge, service, morality, and excellence. The brothers here at Gamma Kappa strive to develop these values in their daily lives, with their devotion and drive never going unnoticed.
Current brothers work tirelessly to uphold each of these values through dedications of time to organizations on and off campus. One particular service the brothers relish in providing is their work to clean up the campus they call home each Friday. Fridays are doubly special to Fiji as these days are also marked by the featuring of all the excellent activities of the week on Instagram. In providing time and aspiring to be exceptional individuals, there is no shortage of friendship fostered among the brothers and every exterior friend or organization with whom they interact. Knowledge and morality mature in tandem as brothers aim to become better men, accepting anyone into their midst to share with them all the information they can just as each new member contributes to their betterment. 
The Gamma Kappa chapter of Phi Gamma Delta allies the like-minded men of this fraternity in their journey and desire to find strong bonds with one another, develop leadership skills, grow confidence and initiative to become strong members of our society, and heightens their knowledge and understanding of each other in order to build a better world for all.
For nearly 40 years, we have graduated CEOs, leaders, businessmen, and many more from the little house on West Campus Road. And we don’t plan on stopping anytime soon.

 

deia position statement

We here at the Gamma Kappa chapter of Phi Gamma Delta (FIJI) strive to create a safe and welcoming community here at Colorado School of Mines. We openly welcome any student into our community regardless of race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, origin, socioeconomic status and physical, psychological, or neurological condition, and we aim to make Greek life and campus as a whole an accepting and supportive environment. We wholeheartedly believe in the above, but we must address the fact that FIJI is not a co-ed organization. We are allowed to welcome individuals who identify as males, as per our international bylaws; however, we believe that there is no correct or incorrect way to “identify as male.” Gender identity is a complicated phenomenon that is different for each individual, and we wholly welcome transgender and genderqueer individuals who fall under the umbrella of male to become brothers of Phi Gamma Delta. When anyone from our chapter along their journey discovers that they are not male, we continue to love and support them as sisters or compatriots of our fraternity.
