Delta Sigma Delta was established by far-sighted proessionals ~ men with vision ~ who possessed the desire to render the best dental services in the highest professional manner.  It was intended to bring together not only the most talented students of dentistry while in school, but by the establishment of the Supreme Chapter, it brought in the outstanding teachers and practitioners.

Professional fraternities have strong faculty support because of the high standards required for the establishment of a chapter on a campus.  A good scholastic average is an important criterion for membership.  These fraternities feature professional and educational programs as well as the usual special functions, and have active Graduate Chapters.  Nowhere in the histroy of Delta Sigma Delta has it been written that we must initiate the largest number of candidates.  On the contrary, the literature is replete with the philosophy of selectivity.
