About Us
The Alpha Delta Chapter of Phi Delta Chi is a co-ed proffesional fraternity at the VCU/MCV School of Pharmacy.
Phi Delta Chi is America's first professional fraternity in pharmacy. Since 1883, we have worked to advance the profession of pharmacy and its allied interests, and to foster and promote a fraternal spirit among our Brothers. We intend to continue to be first as a source of progress for the profession. These primary programs will improve our Brothers and their communities:
- Programs to recognize excellence among collegiate and alumni Brothers and Chapters.
- The Prescott Leadership Award for excellence in a young pharmacist.
- Training and education programs to improve therapeutic, leadership, and management skills of pharmacy students and pharmacists.
- Professional and service programs to help the community.
- Communication programs and publications to link all Brothers.
- Fraternal programs to foster our Brotherhood.
