Bigger and better than ever

Our COMPASS Experiences provide a menu of program options focused on character education, values identification, leadership development, skills activation and more through a variety of world-class partnerships—delivered by Delta Tau Delta. Like the needle on a compass rose helps position a traveler, these COMPASS Experiences help orient participants for successful futures. Our progression of program partnerships offers a wide range of experiences for all learning styles and knowledge levels, helping usher you through the transitional undergraduate years into your chosen career path and life post-graduation.

Each experience offered under the COMPASS umbrella is focused on personal development. Better chapters, better campuses, better communities and even better careers start with being better men. Use COMPASS as a guide on your journey towards excellence.
