Draft:Delta Phi Nu

Delta Phi Nu (ΔΦΝ) is a sorority founded at Fleming College in Peterborough, Ontario in 2008.

History
On 2008-01-01, two incredible women set out to start a sisterhood for strong, empowered, hard-working women. Their goal was to create an organization that would bring strangers who believed in similar values together to create life-long bonds of friendship while promoting self-development. This led to the creation of Omega Psi, a local sorority at Fleming College in Peterborough, Ontario. Their founding class consisted of two women: The Omega Psi chapter initiated its first class on May 14, 2008.

In 2017 the sorority started to expand to other Canadian universities and colleges, which resulted in the formation of a National Sorority, Delta Phi Nu, and Omega Psi was consolidated as a chapter under the newly formed national sorority Delta Phi Nu Canada.

In 2024 Delta Phi Nu expanded for the first time outside of Ontario in Canada in Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Symbols and traditions
The official colours are blue, white and silver. The official flower is the Delphinium. ΔΦΝ has an official jewel, the blue diamond.

Every year on May 14th Delta Phi Nu celebrates their sisterhood together, with fun sisterhood events and bonding.

The open motto of the organization is Loyalty, Perseverance and Knowledge. "In Loyalty, Knowledge, and Perseverance we pledge."-Samantha Fox
