Tour
Karnea Hall
Dedicated to the Karnea, which is Greek for “Festival of Apollo,” this hallway displays the artifacts, portraits, and historical detail of the Fraternity’s biennial convention. As you move through the hallway you will see not only the different locations where the convention was held, but also the Delts and guests who attended the Karneas and shaped our great Fraternity.
Also in this wing of the International Headquarters you will see the executive vice president’s office, which is dedicated to Hugh Shields, former executive of the Fraternity from 1931 to 1965. Other than his service in the Air Force during WWII, the Fraternity was his only employer. Many of today’s practices of the Fraternity are a result of Hugh Shields’s influence. The remaining offices belong to the director of business affairs, the director of residential life, and the Fraternity’s accounting staff.
