DELTA UPSILON PHI the new name of DU Philippines
 

As we have come up to a decision and agreed by the founders and alumni association of Delta Upsilon in the Philippines the new name now of the fraternity is now DELTA UPSILON PHI which stands for DELTA UPSILON OF THE PHILIPPINES .


The reason of changing the name now is to create peace and harmony to the International and as we proudly say that "Delta Upsilon 1834 , the one who inspired our fraternity and serve as our foundation".

We officially declare today that the new name is DELTA UPSILON PHI.

And you still look like copycats who are ripping off DU. Wait, you are!

Inspired? Or was it a cease and desist letter from the real DU?

essentially the latter

:rolleyes:

As the International Heads of DU aware on this matter
 

As approve already by the Delta Upsilon in the Philippines that the new name will be DELTA UPSILON PHI , I emailed directly the Executive Director of DU in US and here is my email:
