    BETA NU HISTORY


    The Beta Nu chapter at Virginia Tech began as a local sorority in the fall of 1969. In June of 1972, 12 charter members were pledged and later established the newest Tri-Delta chapter on May 5th, 1973.


    In 1989, construction began on special purpose homes in the Oak Lane community. Tri Delta moved into its new house in August of 1990.

    OUR SYMBOLS

    THE PEARL 

    The pearl is the jewel of Tri Delta.
    It was chosen to symbolize the new member, because it is the one jewel that grows, developing from a tiny grain of sand into a thing of great value and beauty.

    THE DOLPHIN
     
    The dolphin is recognized as an additional symbol of importance as it was considered to be a good omen by the ancient Greeks. It symbolizes rebirth, friendship and leadership. In Tri Delta, the dolphin is symbolic of clear skies and smooth sailing and has special significance for Fraternity leaders.
