Campus Greek News
Phi Delt house to be demolished

From the 7/27/10 issue of The Daily Collegian.

The university's decision to convert the former Phi Delta Theta fraternity house into a "green space" has elicited disappointment from the greek community.

Penn State bought the 243 N. Burrowes property for $1.75 million in May, after a legal dispute with the Phi Delta Theta fraternity.

The fraternity was disbanded in 2007 for drinking violations.

The decision was made to turn the property into a "green space" -- complete with sidewalks and benches, university spokeswoman Annemarie Mountz said.

The demolition process began Monday evening (7/26), when contractors put up fencing around the construction area, Mountz said.

The Evolution of the Emblem of KDR
Zeta Chapter was featured in a story in the summer 2010 Quill & Scroll about the evolution of the official emblem of Kappa Delta Rho.

An excerpt from the article:

"If there was ever a chapter that led the charge in a rebellion against our Roman heritage, it certainly would have been Zeta.  here is evidence that the seeds of this change began to germinate soon after the chapter was chartered in 1920. Almost all of the fraternities established at Penn State used coats of arms as their official emblems and there must have been pressure for the fledgling chapter to conform to this trend. Zeta Chapter artifacts now held in the National Fraternity archives reveal  experimentation with the design of our arms as early as 1922. eAlterations were subtle at first, such as the Roman helmet in Ratti’s design being replaced by a knight’s helmet. As time went on and the chapter became more established, the changes grew bolder; by 1924, the men of Zeta were using a unique, hand-drawn version of our arms."

Read the full story in the online Quill & Scroll, beginning on page 12.
