Les Soeurs Fideles
Welcome to the Phi Mu Alumnae of Baton Rouge! As alumnae of Phi Mu Fraternity, we have been offered a lifetime of friendship. And while each of us may have had a different college experience, we share a bond of sisterhood and believe in the ideals of our Creed: love, honor, and truth.
Whether you are a life-long Louisianian, or you're new to Baton Rouge, we are excited to welcome you back into the Phi Mu fold.
“To practice day by day love, honor, truth. Thus keeping true to the meaning, spirit and reality of Phi Mu.”
PHI MU CREED
Our History
On January 4, 1852, three young women, all juniors at Wesleyan College, met to lay the groundwork for the Philomathean Society. Over the next two months, the three Founders gathered additional members, created a constitution, devised an Initiation Service and adopted secret and open mottos. March 4, 1852 marks the day when the Philomathean Society was introduced to the Wesleyan campus and is the date Phi Mu observes as our Founders’ Day.
By the turn of the century, the Philomathean Society had developed a strong body of alumnae, a history rich in tradition and the confidence to expand into a national organization. On August 1, 1904, the Philomathean Society was chartered by the State of Georgia as a national organization with the exclusive use of the Greek letters “Phi Mu” and the right to establish additional chapters on other campuses.
