"I chose Delta Zeta because I was looking for a strong circle of friendship. I'm an out-of-state student so I didn't know anybody my freshman year. The sisters of Delta Zeta reached out to me with open arms and gave me the support I needed. Since I accepted my bid in spring of 2017, I have gained and learned so much. Being president is such an incredible opportunity because I am able to encourage my chapter to be the best it can be."
- Alyssa Lanphear, President of the Theta Omega Chapter
