A Message From Our President
As President this Spring, I look forward to leading and advancing our fraternity, which has given a community and professional development to many students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Delta Sigma Pi has helped me grow as a professional, leader, and friend, and I’m excited to give the same benefits to other students.
I rushed DSP hoping to get more professional benefits; however, I quickly saw that joining would give me more — a community of like-minded, ambitious students eager to see themselves, and other members, succeed. Above all, I saw the lifelong friendships brothers made with each other and knew DSP would be more than just a student organization for me. In joining, I got everything I had been looking for and more. Having been welcomed into the fraternity, immediately receiving mentorship, and having four international students in my pledge class has been a rewarding experience only DSP can offer. Through my experience, I can confidently say that joining DSP will give you the community and professional opportunities you are looking for, as well as what you did not know you wanted.
My favorite part about DSP is the drive and unique ambition each brother has. DSP is special in that each brother has a unique backstory — and I really mean that — while also having their own ambitions and competitive edge for their careers. Whether you want a community, internship, professional development, or access to exclusive opportunities and speaker events, DSP is for you.
If you are curious about what DSP could mean for your college experience, I encourage you to come to our first kickoff meeting at the start of our recruitment period. It is the best way to see firsthand what we are about and meet the brothers who make this organization special. If you have recruitment or just general questions, information can be found on our Instagram, @dsp_uw. Additionally, if you have any personal inquiries, reach out to me at (224)-300-9063 or dbathery@wisc.edu. Rush Delta Sigma Pi and find the community and opportunities you have been looking for!
Best regards,
Dillon Bathery

Our Four Pillars
Professional Development
We advance the professional growth of our brothers through frequent events with business leaders in the Madison area and beyond as well as hands-on workshops led by brothers. With 19 leadership positions and a multitude of other ways to get involved, our brothers gain practical experience that allows them to develop organizational, communicative, and critical thinking skills in high responsibility roles. Additionally, with a network featuring hundreds of highly successful alumni, we provide invaluable connections for brothers to utilize not just throughout college, but for life. With all of these resources and opportunities at their disposal, it's no wonder why our brothers have a 96% internship placement rate after being initiated!
Diversity and Inclusion
Delta Sigma Pi believes that individuals and organizations benefit from a wide range of perspectives, and we cultivate a culture of respect that broadens our viewpoints and makes us stronger and more effective leaders. We strive to promote diversity within our chapter and the Wisconsin School of Business, fostering an inclusive and educating environment. You can read more by clicking the link below about the efforts we are taking this year to push for a more diverse and inclusive environment both in our fraternity and the school of business as a whole.
SERVICE AND PHILANTHROPY
Our brothers learn to cultivate an attitude of service to our communities, supporting cultural and civic organizations that have a significantly positive impact on the lives of individuals and families. By consistently volunteering and creating awareness for organizations such as the Ronald McDonald House, the MACC Fund, and River Food Pantry, we have maintained an excellent reputation among organizations throughout the Madison community.
BROTHERHOOD
We’re more than just a professional organization! From study groups to social gatherings, our brothers always cherish the time spent with each other and support each other wholeheartedly in our paths to success, every step of the way. At national events you'll make connections with other collegiate and alumni members so no matter where you go, you can count on your Delta Sigma Pi brothers to support you both personally and professionally. As we like to say here, the friendships and connections made in Delta Sigma Pi aren’t for four years, they’re for life!
