About Delta Sigma Pi
CHAPTER HISTORY

The Lambda Phi Chapter of Delta Sigma Pi was founded on 14 May 1988 at California State University, Long Beach. It was established by 23 dedicated students of the School of Business who all had the same vision of building one of the greatest chapters in Delta Sigma Pi's history. Not only is this chapter now one of the best in the region, but also in its province with around 700 brothers since its establishment.

BROTHERHOOD

Part of what makes our professional organization unique is our Brotherhood. While we work to develop ourselves personally and professionally, we foster our relationships through brotherhood activities such as softball games, beach bonfires, movie nights, hikes, and so much more! Delta Sigma Pi works to build lifelong connections and relationships that last a lifetime, and our common goal for personal and professional development help us achieve just that!

PHILANThROPY

One of the most important aspects of Delta Sigma Pi is giving back to the community around us. Every semester, the Lambda Phi chapter at Cal State, Long Beach works with various organizations, including Ronald McDonald House Charities, LA Works, and the American Cancer Society to make a difference for those in need. We strive to instill this type of commitment to service into every member of Delta Sigma Pi.

Delta Sigma Pi was founded as a fraternity for business majors in 1907 by four men who met as freshman at New York University’s School of Commerce, Accounts, and Finance. Alexander Frank Makay, Alfred Moysello, Henry Albert Tienken, and Harold Valentine Jacobs didn’t know each other prior to matriculating, but became friends through their classes and shared train rides to and from school. Discussing the exclusivity of one organization dominant on campus at the time, the four decided to start a fraternity open to all business majors. The organization they founded became Delta Sigma Pi.
