The Bradley Chapter is pleased to announce that we were named one of the seven finalists for its 2019 Sweepstakes Trophy, the highest honor that can be bestowed upon a DU undergraduate chapter. This is the fourth year in a row our chapter has received this distinction. Chapter member Nikkoh Mendoza, Bradley ’20, was also named the Fraternity’s Chapter President of the Year. The awards were presented at Delta Upsilon’s annual Leadership Institute, July 25-28 in Indianapolis, Indiana. In addition, Nikkoh was elected as an Undergraduate Director to the Delta Upsilon International Fraternity Board of Directors for the 2019-2020 academic year.

Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, Greek Week has not occurred in the past two years. However, our chapter, with the help of Chi Omega sorority, took 2nd place in the 2019 pan-fran dance competition and 1st place in Greek Week overall. Some of the other events included The Greek Games, a school supply drive, and a Chipotle fundraiser benefiting local Peoria charities.
