Phi Mu is the second oldest female fraternal organization. It was founded in Macon, GA at Wesleyan College on March 4, 1852, and came to the University of Tennessee in 1908. Our chapter was the fourth sorority to be established at UT and is the longest standing Phi Mu chapter in the nation. We uphold and stand by our values of Love, Honor, and Truth. Our motto “Les Soeurs Fideles,” meaning the faithful sisters, reflects the ideals and embodiment of our chapter.
Our national philanthropy is Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, and we are lucky enough to have a local hospital, East Tennessee Children’s Hospital, less than 2 miles from our chapter house. In 2021, we raised over $43,600 for East Tennessee Children’s hospital. We have been acknowledged as Phi Mu’s 3rd Highest Fundraising Chapter in the Nation and East TN Children’s Hospital 4th highest fundraising partner. Our chapter raised over $43,000 dollars during VOLTHON. This year, we are on track to raise more money for East Tennessee Children’s Hospital and Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals than ever.

Phi Mu’s founders Mary Ann DuPont Lines, Mary Elizabeth Myrick Daniel, and Martha Bibb Hardaway Redding created this chapter to last a lifetime. Our members are encouraged to participate and be involved with our sisterhood.
