Phi Delta Phi

Phi Delta Phi International Legal Fraternity is one of the newest and oldest organizations at the University of North Dakota School of Law. We are members of the Bruce Inn, first chartered in 1912. We had become briefly inactive in recent years, but re-chartered in 2009.

Phi Delta Phi was established in 1869 to promote a higher standard of professional ethics. It is among the oldest legal organizations in North America and even predates the American Bar Association. What sets PDP apart are our strong international reach, devotion to legal excellence, and our restriction of membership only to law students and legal practitioners.

Phi Delta Phi has one hundred and thirty-one active chapters -- called Inns -- in the Western Hemisphere and the number increases yearly. Phi Delta Phi has initiated in excess of 200,000 members making it the world's largest legal fraternity whose membership is restricted to students and practitioners of the law.

Membership

PDP is open to all students, in good standing, in the top third of their class, as well as to those students that display a dedication to community service or ethics. There is a one-time membership fee of $160.00. Once paid, membership and benefits last for a member’s lifetime.
