Academics

Phi Gamma Delta achieves excellence in academics through encouraging and teaching its members to do the following:

Develop and maintain a sound academic program leading towards your future occupational goals.
Organize study to the point that time is not wasted.
Always ask questions of fraternity brothers or faculty if applicable.

Phi Gamma Delta rewards stellar academic behavior through various scholarships:

Each pledge in the fraternity who earns a 3.0 grade point average or above during his pledge period, receives a $250 scholarship.
The fraternity's members also receive, yearly, various local and national Phi Gamma Delta scholarship grants along with grants sponsored by the Interfraternity Council.

Each year, we have several brothers go on to grad school in business, medicine, law, and other disciplines. Many of these brothers have earned scholarships to help continue their educations.

Alcohol Free Housing

Phi Gamma delta is dedicated to Alcohol-Free housing. No alcohol may be present at any time on the chapter premises. Alpha Nu strictly follows both UNM, and Phi Gamma Delta policy pertaining to alcohol. Having alcohol present can lead to unsafe environments, and may lead to a less efficient learning environment. Alcohol may be permitted at Fraternity events that are conducted off campus such as formals, all of these will have a bartender and security present, and only those who are 21 or older will be permitted to consume alcohol..
