MorPhi Delta Epsilon hosted its dodge ball tournament in support of Children's Miracle Network and its partner, Children's Hospital of LA. CMN helps provide financial assistance to low income families who may not be able to afford medical services for their child. Every year, Phi Delta Epsilon raises money to help fund for the medical services for kids to ensure that families aren't overwhelmed by their debts!

This year, we saw many teams come out and play! There were free snacks and water provided, and the winners got snazzy t-shirts. Congratulations again to Team Friendship for winning it all!

Phi Delta Epsilon is beginning its Spring 2015 Recruitment for our zeta class! We're so excited for this event to start. 

Phi Delta Epsilon is looking for students that are interested in becoming physicians. Phi Delta Epsilon International Co-Ed Medical Fraternity creates physicians of integrity with a lifelong commitment to our guiding principles of philanthropy, deity, and education through fellowship, service, mentoring, and formal training in leadership, science, and ethics. As UCR's only premedical co-ed fraternity, we take much pride in our close camaraderie and unparalleled diversity.

We hope to see you there!

Welcoming our awesome ‪#‎PhiDEalumniofthemonth‬, we are interviewing our founding president, Justin Hoang! Justin is from sunny San Diego, and recently graduated this spring 2015 with a degree in Biochemistry.
Justin began PhiDE-Delta as the colony coordinator and later as the chapter’s first official president in the winter of his freshman year, and continued to senior year. Justin was also an awesome HPAC Peer Mentor, a volunteer, and a trainer at Loma Linda University Medical Center during his time at UCR. Currently, Justin is both studying for the MCAT and working as a medical scribe for the Desert Regional Medical Center. He plans to apply this June cycle to MD and DO programs for medical school!
We at Phi Delta Epsilon are grateful for his time as an awesome president, and characteristic persona! Here’s his interview.


How has PhiDE changed you as a person?
PhiDE has really just made be a better person all around, as corny as that sounds. It first taught me to be a leader and a professional not only in front of my peers, but also important figures on campus and off. It has also pushed me to be more sociable and open with other people. To be honest, I was pretty shy coming into UCR, but this fraternity has left me with lifelong friendships.


What are some highlights from your time as a member? Is there a particular moment that has changed you significantly?
Some of my fondest memories are just all the things we've accomplished as a fraternity whether it was getting our charter, winning second place at Phi Kapps dodgeball tournament, or receiving our chapter excellence award. But there were also so many moments that I still remember, just from retreat or hanging out off-campus.


Is there a particular vision you have for the fraternity? If so, what, and how should PhiDE work to achieve it?
I understand our chapter is always going to change. But please, never forget why we are all here in the first place. We came together to be a support group for one another and to push each other to be the most outstanding medical applicants on campus. What made us so great early on in our chapter's history was the fact that everyone was willing to do their part to make the chapter better. Everyone has their own vision of what they want this chapter to be, so if you are ever unhappy with the direction this fraternity is going, make a stand and do whatever it takes big or small to push the fraternity in a positive direction. 
Our fraternity is amazing because it was the manifestation of all of our visions, and the product of all our hard work.
