History of delta sigma pi

In the autumn of 1906, there were only a handful of business schools in the United States. One such school—The School of Commerce, Accounts, and Finance—enrolled 300 students as part of New York University. Four members of the Class of 1909—Alexander Frank Makay, Alfred Moysello, Henry Albert Tienken, and Harold Valentine Jacobs—started a fraternity for business majors that became what is known today as the International Fraternity of Delta Sigma Pi.

The response to their idea was positive and immediate. The Fraternity’s constitution was drafted and adopted in the fall of 1907. Then the first officers were elected and November 7, 1907 was declared Founders’ Day. In April of 1908, the name Delta Sigma Pi was adopted and bylaws were approved, with the Fraternity’s badge and colors approved shortly thereafter. By 1911, the Fraternity was publishing a newsletter that evolved into the official publication still in circulation today, The DELTASIG. In 1912, the Delta Sigma Pi Scholarship Key Award was established and continues to the present day. Delta Sigma Pi chartered its second chapter—at the Northwestern School of Commerce in Chicago—in 1914 at its national convention, Grand Chapter Congress. 

After two world wars and the Great Depression, Delta Sigma Pi renewed its expansion efforts, establishing a permanent national headquarters to handle administrative services for the organization and a Foundation to support educational endeavors and offer valuable financial support to members through scholarships. Social change in the 1960s and 1970s led the Fraternity to examine its ideals and, in 1975, Delta Sigma Pi became the first business fraternity to initiate women. Since that time, Delta Sigma Pi has continued to expand and refine its operations, determined to equip members for future professional and personal success and is proud of its reputation as the world’s foremost fraternity for business majors.

Today, nearly 300 universities and colleges in the United States, Canada and Mexico are a part of the Delta Sigma Pi network and history.

letter from our president

My fellow Businessmen and Women,

​

The Mu Omega Chapter of Delta Sigma Pi was founded here at The College of New Jersey in Ewing, NJ on May 22, 1993. This marked only the beginning of establishing a premier organization that fosters the study of business and brotherhood cohesively. Our founders sought to leave an impact not only for the four years you spend at TCNJ, but an impact that lasts a lifetime. This impact will serve you in ways you may not yet imagine; however, it is your responsibility to ensure you make that happen for yourself. Today, we find ourselves continuously innovating new ways to distinguish ourselves as true professionals. We stand here with over 700 initiates in our chapter alone throughout the years.

​

With over 80 active brothers and an alumni network of 700+ engaged members with diverse skills and perspectives, we are committed to three fundamental principles: professional development, philanthropy, and brotherhood for life. Ever since I found myself joining during my freshman year, I knew I wanted to share my journey with individuals who strive to achieve their greatest potential and inspire the continued greatness of our fraternity. I believe these three fundamentals guide you not only within this organization, but throughout other areas of your life as well.

​

Our active and alumni brothers have achieved tremendous professional success across many industries, consistently securing internships and full-time offers at firms such as Johnson & Johnson, PwC, EY, KPMG, Deloitte, JPMorgan Chase, TD Bank, Deutsche Bank, and many more. Our brothers gain access to a wide range of fields through networking opportunities, professional workshops, recruiting events, and career panels.

​

Another aspect of our fraternity that we hold closest to our hearts is our philanthropic efforts through involvement with organizations such as TCNJam and Ronald McDonald House. Beyond our campus, we also carry the responsibility of supporting the greater TCNJ community. We work with local organizations such as TASK Soup Kitchen, Arm In Arm, and other community partners that provide us with opportunities to give back and support those around us.

​

Lastly, the most fulfilling aspect of our fraternity that I am most appreciative of is the brotherhood and the countless challenges it has presented—challenges that have pushed me to become a better professional and, more importantly, a better person every single day. I am grateful for the opportunities it has already provided, and I want others to embrace these challenges as they work toward becoming the future business professionals they envision themselves to be. Our connections are built on a solid foundation of shared values, which is why our brothers continually push one another to become the best versions of themselves in every aspect of life. Joining Delta Sigma Pi gave me the opportunity to surround myself with like-minded individuals who can be present in every aspect of my life. As I continue to see new generations of students pass through our incredible organization, I look forward to leaving a lasting impact and ensuring we continue striving to be the best group of businessmen and women to date.
