Our academic program consists of
several objectives and or
requirements that we ask our
members to adhere and abide by
in order to remain in good
standing with the local Gamma Mu
Chapter and Delta Tau Delta
International Fraternity.
Nationally, our members
attending quarter-based academic
institutions are required to
maintain a 2.0 G.P.A. in order
to obtain membership in Delta
Tau Delta Fraternity. The
cumulative national G.P.A. of
Delta Tau Delta International
Fraternity is a 2.8 G.P.A. which
is a full .2 higher than all
other college fraternities. Delta
Tau Delta is an academic leader
in the fraternity world and we
strive to make sure our members
fulfill their daily commitment
to their academics.
Locally, we require our
members to maintain a minimum
2.25 quarterly G.P.A. while
attending the University of
Washington. This requirement is
.25 higher than the University
of Washington minimum grade
requirement. As a house, we
consistently place at or above
the All Men's and All Fraternity
Grade Point Averages at the
University of Washington.
Our specific Academic
Requirements are as follows:
-
Active
(initiated) members must
maintain a quarterly 2.25
G.P.A. or higher to remain
in good standing and live in
the Gamma Mu shelter.
-
Any
active or associate member
who falls below this
requirement must achieve a
2.5 G.P.A. or higher the
quarter immediately
following a sub-2.25 G.P.A.
performance in order to
continue living in the Gamma
Mu Shelter and remain in
good standing with Delta Tau
Delta Fraternity.
In order to be initiated into
full "active" membership of the
Gamma Mu Chapter of Delta Tau
Delta Fraternity, our associate
members must meet the following
initiation requirements:
Our specific Initiation
Requirements are as follows:
-
Our members must be
full-time students at the
University of Washington.
Full time students (as
defined by the UW) must be
attending 12+ credits per
quarter to be considered
full-time students.
Potential members must also
be in good standing with the
University of Washington.
-
An
associate/new member must
achieve 2.7-3.1 G.P.A.
either Fall or Winter
Quarter to be considered for
initiation. Members
attending 15+ credits can be
initiated w/ a 2.7 G.P.A.
with a sliding scale up to a
3.1 G.P.A. for members
attending 12-14 credits per
quarter.
-
The associate/new members
must pass a written
pre-initiation exam from
Delta Tau Delta
International Fraternity
prior to the actual
initiation rites. This test
will be administered by the
or other alumni/academic
advisor designated by the
Fraternity.
-
The sliding initiation scale
for Fall and Winter Quarter
is as follows: 15+
credits - 2.7 G.P.A.,
14 credits - 2.8 G.P.A.,
13 credits - 2.95 G.P.A.,
12 credits - 3.1 G.P.A.
-
After
initiation, members are
required to maintain a
minimum 2.25 quarterly G.P.A.
Continued unsatisfactory
scholarship can result in
disciplinary action that may
lead to eventual expulsion
from the chapter.
Our study
room has just been recently
renovated. With a new coat of
paint, new wood desks and
computers, Delts have never been
able to study better. We are
also working to completely
digitize our study files so
Delts can have access to
previously taken exams from any
computer at any time. Older
Delts can vouch that the best
way to prepare for exams is
practice the material over and
over. Our test files, therefore,
are a fundamental part to our
academic success.

Our Study Room Facilities
consist of the following:
-
3
Windows XP AMD Athlon
Workstations
-
T-1
dedicated Study Room
Internet connection &
wireless
-
2
networked printers and one
networked flatbed scanner

-
newly
re-carpeted and fully
networked to the rest of the
shelter
-
a database of test-files
from years past ranging from
accounting to psychology
