About Tri Delta

Tri Delta was founded by women, for women, in 1888 at Boston University when our Founders bravely created a new organization that would “think more of a woman’s inner character than her outward appearance.” Their vision has grown into the dynamic women’s organization we know today.

Today, Tri Delta is a network of nearly 250,000 women, and we are committed to lifelong learning through educational initiatives, transformational programming and relevant personal and professional development.

From supporting Tri Delta’s Foundation—which empowers collegiate and alumnae members through transformational programs, scholarships and emergency financial support—to supporting the life-saving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and local children’s cancer charities, Tri Deltas are passionate about serving others.

About Our Chapter

Founded at Virginia Tech in 1973, the Beta Nu Chapter of Tri Delta is home to a sisterhood of more than 200 women committed to friendship, leadership, and service. Our chapter is built on the values of truth, self-sacrifice, and friendship, and we strive to create an environment where every member feels supported, included, and empowered. From academic excellence and campus involvement to community service and philanthropy for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Beta Nu members are leaders who make a positive impact both on campus and beyond. Together, we celebrate the traditions of Tri Delta while creating lasting memories, lifelong friendships, and a chapter culture rooted in kindness and belonging.
