​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.  ​

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 eight 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. 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.

As an out-of-state student, I came into recruitment week looking for a support system to make college life in a new environment feel a little less overwhelming. Little did I know that I would find everything that I was looking for and more when I was welcomed home to Phi Mu on bid day two years ago. Over the past two years in Phi Mu, I have found lifelong best friends who I am fortunate enough to call my sisters. I have been surrounded by an empowering and inspiring group of women who have encouraged me to grow, both as a leader and as a student in my academic endeavors and my involvement on campus. 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 our new members through their first eight weeks as a members of our chapter. Freshman year is one with many great memories and unique experiences, and with the support and love I have found within this chapter every year has been better than the last. I am so proud and thankful to be a Phi Mu, and to be connected to such an extensive network of women across the country that share my pride. I cannot wait for all of our new members to fall in love with this bond within our sisterhood, just as I have. Welcome to Phi Mu, a sisterhood that values love, honor, and truth - we are so excited to meet our new members.
Best,
​Carley Neary
