Mission and Values
Our destination is our MISSION:
"Committed to Lives of Excellence!"
Our decisions are based on our VALUES:
Truth, Courage, Faith and Power are our Foundation
Integrity is Essential
Accountability is Fundamental to ALL Commitments
Lifelong Learning and Growth are Vital
Strengthening Community is Essential to Our Vitality
Brotherhood Sustains Us
Based on our four fundamental principles, Delta Tau Delta seeks men willing to push themselves to a higher level:
TRUTH ensures vitality in the relationship an organization maintains with the outside world. Without truth, there is no trust. To become brothers, men must be truthful to themselves and to one another.
COURAGE takes heart. Courage allows us to navigate the difficult situations and decisions we face in life. Through courage, we better understand our options and can then make the best decisions, regardless of the popularity of these choices.
FAITH is belief. It means trusting oneself and believing actions taken are appropriate and right. Faith helps inform decisions through an investment of trust. A lack of faith drives a wedge through an organization as well as friendships.
POWER is represented by inner strength and is a combination of talents, inherent abilities and wisdom. Power is amplified when individuals unite in brotherhood. When combined with courage, faith and truth, the power of an organization leads its members into a future filled with success.
Living according to a defined set of values is challenging; it requires self-control and perseverance. It takes a commitment to lifelong learning, civic engagement and academic excellence.
The values of Delta Tau Delta are not for everyone, but for those who recognize a commonality of purpose, they are the basis for a lifetime of learning and development.
