Changes

2015 was a very successful and busy year for the Delta Gamma chapter! Our chapter has accomplished many goals individually and as a whole. We are happy to announce a successful Fall 2015 rush, recruiting 51 new beautiful ladies. Academically, we are also very pleased of our accomplishments for 2015, ranking 5th over all for highest grades. This past year has also been very successful exceeding our expectations with awesome philanthropy events. Each Halloween our sorority participates in a local charity event called Safe Halloween. Michigan State’s Greek Life hosts a street carnival full of Halloween activities for children to enjoy the purpose is to provide a safe alternative to trick-or-treating for the children of East Lansing’s community. Also starting in March we begin collecting children’s books to donate to the Boys and Girls Club of Lansing. Following the book drive we hold our annual carnival at the Boys and Girls Club. At this event, we read some of the books, made crafts, face-painted and learned new dance moves from all of the kids! Both the kids and the Kappas had a blast and each child was able to leave with three books! The most exciting philanthropy event is the annual “Very Hungry Kappa-Pillar” pie-eating contest. This event was first introduced to our chapter by our former Philanthropy Chairman, Andi Tonis, who started the first pie-eating contest on campus! In addition to our philanthropy events we were also involved in the community by participating in events such as the Polar Plunge and Relay for Life. Lastly, this past spring our chapter hosted Founders Day, a day that recognizes when the organization was established and those who were involved. We honor our founding fathers founders and open the house to local alumni wanting to share their favorite memories and experiences. We brought out old photos and artifacts from our chapter history closet and everyone had a great time indulging in some of the Delta Gamma chapter’s past.
