DU Circle -- Join Today!
Establish Your Network!
Ever wonder what your freshman year roommate is doing now? Have you been trying to catch up with an old classmate that you’ve lost touch with? Maybe you just graduated and are trying to use your Georgia Tech connections to land your first job? In September 2007, Delta Upsilon launched DU Circle, a new online networking community to help you re-connect, stay connected, and meet new alumni through the people you already know.
DU Circle is a free service provided by Delta Upsilon exclusively for brothers. Sharing pictures, thoughts, job opportunities, and news with your fellow trusted brothers has never been easier. Through DU Circle, you can tap into one of the greatest resources available to you – your network of DU friends and friends-of-friends.

Most people are familiar with the concept of six degrees of separation. You know Jason, Jason knows Adam, and Adam knows Kevin Bacon right? Well, now you can employ the same concept within your own alumni community. You know your freshman roommate, and your roommate knows the VP of a company you’d like to do business with. With DU Circle you can actually see these connections and, for the first time, visualize your existing extended network. By building your network, and inviting your friends to do the same, your reach throughout the community grows exponentially.
Is this just for finding business contacts? Not at all. DU Circle is whatever each individual alumnus wants to make of it.
You fill out your profile with whatever information you want to share, invite and accept invitations from only those people you know and trust, and join groups based on your location, interests, hobbies, or school clubs. Anything from new mothers comparing notes, to mountain bikers recommending trails, to a local chapter sharing event photos and organizing their next gathering; it’s up to you. You can even create your own groups and job listings!
Plus, you can connect anywhere, anytime you have an internet connection – at home or on the road, at noon or 2 am. Enjoy this great opportunity to network with other DUs in your area, across the country, or around the globe.
Many alums have been asking for message board functionality and with DU circle you are able to instantly communicate with DU alums all over the country as well as start message boards. Join the Georgia Tech Alumni Group to see what is going on!
