The Cornell Delta Upsilon Association (CDUA) has been the alumni governing body of the Cornell chapter since 1882. It meets by telephone regularly and at least once a year in person. Its three main purposes are to:
- “Promote the mental, moral and social improvement of its members”
- Operate and maintain the Chapter house
- Provide guidance and counsel to the active Chapter
