FIJI Fights Cancer

Our annual St. Baldricks Fundraising event is kicking off! Each year, the Gamma Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta sets a goal to raise money for the St. Baldrick's Foundation to fund childhood cancer research and find cures for children with cancer. Brothers will also shave their heads to participate in the fundraiser fully.

Please help us reach our goal! A donation of any size is appreciated, and even if you can't donate, please share this post with friends and family!

COVID-19 Update

The Gamma Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta has cancelled all future events for the remainder of 2020.

For information on Knox College’s COVID-19 policies please check their website. For information on Knox College’s Virtual Homecoming Events please check here. We also encourage everyone to follow all guidelines provided by the CDC.

Campaign Zero

The Brothers of the Gamma Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta cannot be bystanders in the wake of recent injustices. The deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and countless others have ached our hearts. Our core values of Phi Gamma Delta are friendship, knowledge, service, excellence, and morality, which are values that our fraternity strives to exemplify every day of our lives. Now more than ever, we as a brotherhood have the duty to speak out against injustices committed against the black community. Please consider donating to the gofundme page we setup; all the funds will be going to Campaign Zero. #BlackLivesMatter

COVID-19

The Gamma Deuteron Chapter of Phi Gamma Delta has canceled all future events until October 24, 2020

Knox College has moved all classes to be taught remotely for the remainder of the year due to the pandemic of COVID-19. We hope to see all graduate brothers on October 24, 2020 for our annual Homecoming weekend at Knox College. We also encourage everyone to follow all guidelines provided by the CDC.

The 153rd annual Frank Norris Pig Dinner has been canceled

The health and safety of our brothers and graduate brothers is a top priority. With that said, it is with great sorrow that we must cancel Pig Dinner this year. COVID-19 has forced Knox College to move classes online until May 4th. Traveling and having significant group events can contribute to the spread of COVID-19; because of this, it is ill-advised to host this event. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
We look forward to seeing all of our graduate brothers at Homecoming this Fall!
