The Florida Chapter is sad to report the passing of Brother John Meena ('84). As a former DU President and lifelong Gator, he exemplified the values of leadership, loyalty, and brotherhood. He was a devoted husband, father, and friend, remembered for his warmth, quiet strength, and the genuine way he connected with others. He fought cancer for nearly seven years with extraordinary courage.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones during this difficult time. May we honor John's memory by remembering the example he set and the impact he had on so many.

Rest in Peace, Brother. Dikaia

Calling all Delta Upsilon alumni!

Come join us at the Chapter House on Saturday, April 11th for the Orange & Blue Game. This year's spring game will be especially exciting as it marks the first one under new Florida Head Coach Jon Sumrall. Kickoff is set for 12:00 pm.

We'll begin the day with an Alumni Board Meeting at 10:00 am, and all alumni are invited to attend. After that, stick around and enjoy BBQ cooked by our chef Louis Lee!

Go Gators and Dikaia!🔵🟡

Rest in peace to Brother Lou Holtz (Kent State '59).

Brother Holtz is a member of the College Football Hall of Fame and had a 34-year coaching career. He is the only college football coach to lead six different programs to bowl games, as well as four different programs to final top 20 rankings. Some of our alumni were able to meet him a few years ago! Delta Upsilon Fraternity

This week, DU Alumnus Lou Holtz (Kent State ‘58) visited UF. Some of our alumni had the chance to meet Lou, who is one of the prominent college football coaches of our time. #Δικαια

The Florida Chapter of Delta Upsilon has a proud tradition of leadership and service on campus, and we are excited to continue that legacy.

Last night, three of our brothers were sworn in as members of the UF Student Government Senate. Nick Andrews and Alesandro Cafferata were reelected to their graduate seats, and Noah Disher was elected to represent the Warrington College of Business.

We are incredibly proud of their dedication to serving the student body and are confident they will represent the values of Delta Upsilon with integrity and distinction on campus.
