Professor Social
On November 12, Sigma Delt teamed up with AZD, SigEp, and Order of Omega to host a professor social at the house. Our scholarship and programming chairs joined forces and created a student art show (featuring almost exclusively Sigma Delt art, so much talent in the house!) and hosted the Rockapellas at the conclusion of the event.
Profs and students mingled, mixed, ate delicious food and snacks, and talked to people from all different academic departments, Greek houses, ages, and experiences. The professors said they enjoyed it, and we did too. And who knows, maybe we even boosted our grades? Fingers crossed!
Sigma Delt Philanthropy This Term!
It has been a great term for philanthropy in Sigma Delt. Overall, sisters did close to 400 hours in community service, both through the house and through individual organizations. We cooked for Students Fighting Hunger a number of times, an event which is always a blast. Our new pledges participated in the Out of the Darkness Walk, which raised awareness about suicide prevention and was organized by the Active Minds group on campus. As a sisterhood we raised over $300 towards the house charity for the term, which was World Partners in Education (an organization that one of our sisters is currently very involved in). Individual sisters were involved in other fundraising efforts. Some sisters participated in the DREAM Date Auction, which overall raised $1,600. Other sisters were heavily involved in fundraising for the Out of the Darkness Walk, which overall raised $5,000 towards suicide prevention. Sigma Delt also manned the canteen station at the Blood Drive, as we do on a termly basis.
Overall a great term for philanthropy – we look forward to more great events next term!
Paintballing!
The more battle-inclined members of Sigma Delt and SigEp braved Saturday’s rain to unleash their inner warrior on the paintball field. As expected, SD dominated.
Hardcore SDs geared up.
Paintballs flew, honor was won and lost, and at the end of the day, the tired, muddy paintballers ate some really awesome Chinese food.
