Delta Theta Phi (Law Professional)

UT’s chapter of Delta Theta Phi traces its roots to the law school’s first professional fraternity, the Reese Law Club, founded in 1898 and named for William B. Reese, a justice of the Tennessee Supreme Court and later president of the university. In 1903 the club became a division of Theta Lambda Phi, which later consolidated with Delta Theta Phi. The club became inactive in 1912 and was reestablished in 1966.
