Theta Nu

The Delta Sigma Phi Theta Nu Chapter was founded in 1994 at Idaho State University in Pocatello, Idaho. It is one of the oldest fraternities at the Idaho State Campus. It was colonized on November 24th, 1994. It received its charter on March 1st, 1997. The two founders of this chapter were Deron Robert Smith and Luca Vasapolli.

The Theta Nu Chapter is an offspring of Delta Lambda at Utah State and Delta Delta of Purdue. Luca Vasapolli was initiated at Delta Lambda and moved to Pocatello, Idaho. It was when he decided to start a colony that he met Deron Robert Smith, who had been a brother of Delta Delta. Working together, they were able to successfully colonize ISU. Alpha class was also instrumental in starting the chapter; particularly Michael McKay, Vernon Burke, Tommy Maxwell, Jason Retherford and David Lowry.

Many of the Alpha class generation still keep in touch. Although Luca Vasapolli moved back to Switzerland in December 1996, he still makes an annual fishing trip with the other brothers of 1994.
