Chapter History

We are so proud of our rich history at DePaul, and cannot wait to welcome new members to our chapter this fall!

DePaul University is a private institution of higher education and research in Chicago, Illinois. Founded by the Vincentians in 1898, the university takes its name from the 17th century French priest Saint Vincent de Paul. The student body consists of about 25,400 students making DePaul the largest Roman Catholic university and one of the 10 largest private universities in the United States.

On October 1-6, 2007, Delta Gamma Fraternity expansion team began establishing Eta Pi at DePaul. Pledging took place on Sunday afternoon and Collegiate Consultants Lindsay Pingel Weismiller, Zeta-Albion, and Katie Ozburn, Eta Kappa-NC State stayed on site and implemented the new member program. The new members worked diligently throughout this time by creating documents for the chapter and electing officers. They also began a tradition of “Doing Good’ by raising $2,400 in a breast cancer walk. They carved pumpkins and made holiday cards donating them to the Little Sisters of the Poor nursing home. On November 18, 2007, Installation and Inspiration festivities culminated with the presentation of the Eta Pi charter by Fraternity President Shari Souser Malone, Gamma Epsilon-Kent State to chapter president, Michelle Diem.
