The Gamma Delta chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia was founded when the Murray Men's Music Club wrote a check to become a chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, and this check bounced. The men decided to create a show called, Campus Lights. Just by the success with which it earned that first year(1938) the men of Gamma Delta decided to make it an annual show. Every year the students of Murray State University produce, direct, perform in and often time write the production of the year. The first performance for Campus Lights was held on April 19th, 1938. The proceeds went to pay for the bounced check to the National Fraternity and then the Gamma Delta Chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia was born on May 15th, 1938.

    During the years of 1944-1945, Campus Lights was dubbed "Campus Dimout" Due to the men of Gamma Delta serving America in WWII. The name "Dimout" was given due to the conservation of electricity. The women Sigma Alpha Iota took over the production of Campus Lights and the show went on. This year celebrates the 66th year for the production. This years production is entitled "Not Far From Here". It is written by two alumni of Gamma Delta, S. Scott Hamrick (Script) and Joseph Klotz (Music). Dates for the show are January 23rd - 25th, 2003. As usual the performances will be in the historic Lovett Auditorium.
