Phi Delta Chi is a fraternity for pharmacy professionals that originated in 1883. PDC values brotherhood for life, selfless service, purpose-driven leadership, and lifelong learning.

Delta Iota is a local chapter of Phi Delta Chi in the Fisch College of Pharmacy at the University of Texas at Tyler. This chapter earned its charter in 2020. Although small, Delta Iota has persevered through the trial and tribulations of COVID-19 and has maintained the value of brotherhood.

Our goal for our chapter is serve the greater East Texas area through volunteering and offering services. We strive to make an impact in our community to aid in the healthcare disparity.
