​Our Phi Program (new member experience) is an eight-week program that enhances the Phi Mu collegiate experience by helping new members transition into Fraternity membership. New members will learn about Phi Mu's rich history and begin to form bonds with other members.  Weekly Phi meetings are directed by our New Member Educator and provide new members with the framework for personal, academic, social and professional growth.  ​

Every week, each Phi will be paired up with a sophomore Phi Pal. Your Phi Pal will take you out to ice cream, a Husker football game, or even to study. Phi Pals turn into friendships, and these friendships have the ability to turn into a big and little bond.
​
​Big/little week is one of the most memorable parts of the Phi Program. Everyday, new members come to the house to find gifts and clues to who their big might be. At the end of the week, bigs reveal themselves and welcome their new littles into a growing family. Finding a family you can turn to helps make you feel even more at home in Phi Mu.

Inspiration Week, better known as I-Week, is one of the most meaningful times as a Phi Mu sister. New members will reflect on the past seven weeks, and really think about what makes Phi Mu special. New members will spend time with each pledge class and their bigs to celebrate the upcoming initiation. At the end of the week, our new pledge class initiates into Phi Mu and joins the sisterhood for a lifetime. We celebrate the weekend of initiation with a Carnation Ball. As an initiated member, you continue the journey in Phi Mu getting to know all sisters and develop a support system that will last a lifetime.

Little did I know as I was walking up to a maroon door on the first day of formal recruitment that I was entering the house I now call my home.  In Phi Mu, I have found my best friends - the beautiful women I am fortunate enough to call my lifelong sisters.  Phi Mu has impacted me in more ways than I could have ever imagined, creating in me confidence not only in myself but also in my leadership abilities and academic success.  This sisterhood is unparalleled, and it has made my college experience better than I could have ever imagined. My role in our chapter is to guide new members through their first eight weeks of college and transition into Phi Mu.  Freshman year is a truly memorable and unrepeatable time, but with Phi Mu, every year is better than the last, and you will soon be holding these memories dear to you as you become an alumni member of our chapter.  I am so thankful and proud to be a Phi Mu, and cannot wait for our new members to fall in love with this bond just as I have.  Welcome to Phi Mu - a sisterhood that values love, honor, and truth and that becomes a home to all of her members.
Best,
McKenna Copsey
