The men of Sigma Tau Nu are an organization that promotes its brotherly bond by keeping honor within its members; by living by the shield of our Fraternity.

Within our shield we show and promote:

As the newest fraternity on Heidelberg’s campus, the goal of Rho Eta Delta is to build better men through the classroom, community, and Heidelberg itself. Our virtues are Pride, Honor, and Dignity and our values are Leadership, Integrity, Character, Dedication, and Respect. Which then leads into our motto: Character Connects Us All. Essentially, Rho Eta Delta wants to cultivate a strong, professional, and intelligent group of men who value progress for the sake of bonding with upstanding individuals. Academics and leadership are a major focus of Rho Eta Delta.

The Heidelberg Men’s Literary Society was founded on April 15th, 1859. These bright and passionate young men came to be known around Heidelberg's campus as the Heids. Proudly wearing the colors of purple and gray, the Heids pride themselves on the core concepts of unity through diversity for over 160 years. In terms of bonding through brotherhood, few qualify with the unique standards of the Heids when being able to rely on one another to efficiently solve problems. Another Heid core belief is Victory Crowns the Brave.

Excelsior Men’s Society was founded in the same calendar year as Heidelberg College and is the oldest greek society that still remains on campus. One of the most sacred aspects of Excelsior is their brotherhood, which is not just a four-year contract but a lifetime commitment and honor. Excelsior is the only Greek group on campus that does not use Greek letters, opting instead for the letters EX. Excelsior members are leaders on campus, not only in Greek life but in athletics, academics and numerous student organizations. This leadership is a great source of pride.

Founded in 1921 as a literary society, Alpha Phi Tau was created with the intention to better those within the group, Heidelberg’s campus and the greater Tiffin community. The fraternity, also known as Aptonalton or the Aps, believes in respect, equality and brotherhood.

Zeta Theta Psi is a society that strives to empower sophisticated women through academics. We do this by lifting each other up, cheering each other on, and sending each other "good vibes" whenever needed. Created in 2019, the Zeta Gents bring some amazing allies in to help with our mission!

The Philalethean Society is a sisterhood, family and everything in between. They are noble, loyal and true to the green and gold. On campus, they share the title of the oldest women's society with the Euglossian Society. Along with that legacy, we value our longstanding history and uphold traditions dating back to 1913. For community service, they volunteer at Autumnwood Care Center, participate in the PhEx (Phi and Ex) Leaf Rake as well as put on their annual HeadStart Christmas party for less fortunate families.

Kappa Psi Omega is the fourth women’s society to join Heidelberg University’s Greek life. The Kappas were founded on January 23, 1968 and have over 800 members throughout the world. Throughout the years, they have stood by their motto of “Sincerity Our Truth and Individuality Our Goal.” Their colors of white and burgundy represent purity and courage, and they strive to embody this during their college years and beyond. They are courageous when standing up for what they believe in and pure with their strong values and traditions.

The Euglossian Society, also known as the Eugs, is the first and only mixed-gendered Greek society on Heidelberg’s campus. Founded in 1913, the group has upheld their core values of individuality, integrity, and fellowship while proudly wearing purple and white. In the Spring of 2019 our corollary, the Euglos was brought back, they are also mixed-gendered. It is a high priority of ours to be all-inclusive no matter who you are. 

We sponsor many community service events around campus and in the community, such as: 

Known as a very well-rounded group on campus, Delta Sigma Chi prides itself in being a diverse group of girls who have found family within each other. The Delts can be found through many different majors as well as nearly every organization on campus, but we come together to share our core values. Since 1962, Delta Sigma Chi has united together under the ideas of service, scholarship, and sisterhood, we work to create a better future for ourselves, our sisters and our community.
