Phi Mu's History
Three junior women came together on January 4, 1852 at Wesleyan College to lay the foundation for the Philomathean Society. After months of gathering members and creating a constitution, the Philomathean Society was officially introduced to the Wesleyan campus and observed March 4, 1852 as their founders day!
After years of success at Wesleyan College, the Philomathean Society developed a strong sisterhood of alumnae with rich tradition, giving them the confidence to expand into a national organization, known today as Phi Mu.
What is Phi Mu's Philanthropy?
Phi Mu is the only sorority to partner with the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals and to have an alliance with the National Women’s History Museum. In addition, Phi Mu was the first Panhellenic sorority to establish a National Philanthropy Day.
Since Phi Mu’s partnership began with CMNH in 1986, the organization has raised over $19 million through philanthropy events and alumnae relations.
