Family Christmas:
At the end of each fall semester, Phi Mu holds Family Christmas. It is a fun night complete with Christmas dinner, presents and Santa Claus! Our members hold this event for our staff and volunteers as a special thank you for all of their hard work and dedication.
Sister Circles:
For their first semester as a Phi Mu, each new member attends a weekly meeting with other new members that is led by an older member of our chapter. This serves as a way for new members to get to know others in their pledge class, as well as giving them an older member to look up to and come to for any questions. These meetings are very fun and take place in places like the refuge, restaurants, and ice cream shops.
Academics:
