The delta chapter of the national fraternity Phi Eta was established May 28, 1915 at the University of Chicago, as the successor to the Psi Xi fraternity. Graduate students with high academic standing were eligible for membership in the fraternity. Phi Eta suspended activities in November of 1917, in response to the United States entry into World War I.
The Phi Eta Records consist of the fraternity's record book, which includes the constitution, bylaws, and rituals of the group. The collection also includes correspondence, membership lists, and membership cards.
